Hi all ;
I am planning a vacation to Ireland and shopping for a travel adaptor.
All the ones that I find online state that they do not convert the
voltage - which is OK for the laptop converter - which will accept
240 volts 50 - 60 hertz ; and OK for USB charging ;
- but what about other 120 volt devices like my camera battery
charger - that are 120 volt input ?


How old is that. Are you sure it doesn't work on 240. I just bought
this real cheap battery charger, with two batteries, auto plug, and
european adapter for iirc $14 and it runs on 100-240



I have only the nameplate on the devices to go by - these are
chargers for Ni-MH AA AAA batteries - both of my everyday units
were 120 volt - but I dug around the house and found a third one
that is 100 - 240 volt so I'm good, now.
If I were to judge them by apparent "build quality" - I would say
the older 120 volt units are better built - heavier weight, thicker
plastic, stronger metal contacts... probably the reason that they
were my everyday units.
