This is a nicely designed adapter that handle multiple plugs from either end (not all adapters do this). It is unfortunate that people do not undertsand the difference between an adapter and a transformer, and cannot read the labels on electrical appliances. If something is rated as 110/120V and you use the adapter to plug it into a 220/240V source, one should not be surprised to see smoke. Transformers are bulkier and more expensive, but not needed for most electronics whose power supply will handle 110/120/220/240V. If unsure, READ THE LABEL.

China is a country that has various different electrical outlets depending on the region of the country traveled. The Tripshell Travel Adapter offered the use of electricity as we traveled from region to region for the past month. It is easy to use and to carry.

After reading the reviews, I decided to order the adapter with the Amazon for my 10 day trip to Paris and London. I was extremely pleased with this product. I used it to charge my camera's battery and phone every night and it worked beautifully. I highly recommend this adapter and the price is a steal! Get it! You won't be disappointed.
