I purchased this product to use on my trip to Spain. When I got there I found out that I could not use it because it has a flat back and all the plugs I encountered where round and set in about 1 inch. The prongs could not even reach the outlet. Thankfully someone I was traveling with had an extended for the plug and I could use the adapter with that extender. The adapter worked fine.

I purchased 5 of these converters for use in India where the current is 240v. I handed them out to relatives along with mp3 players and phones. They all overheated and one actually melted and the black plastic casing became deformed by morning when plugged in to charge an MP3 player. This product is dangerous, at least for use in Bangalore!!!
