These have been the best adapters for my International work trips: purchased these 2 years for a work trip to the UK and recently--like, literally just got back yesterday from Ireland (a work trip--I work for a Global company --so I am frequently going across "The Pond"). I will be going to Barcelona in Sept... This is an awesome set to have. I am actually going to order Ceptics 12Pk that includes South Africa--just to have it in my luggage closet.
SIDE NOTE: I also purchased 1 of the small black ones to take in the office daily when I am overseas--
Ceptics UP-5KP International Worldwide Travel Adapter Plug, 5-Piece Set with Pouch Size: World Set W/ Pouch, Model: UP-5KP (Tools & Outdoor gear supplies)
I use it for my laptop (and I plug my work phone and personal phone up to my laptop via USB and they charge through the laptop). Also the black set will charge your device WITHOUT the 3rd prong being plugged in!!
TRAVEL TIPS:
(A)****Here is a tip I found on Pinterest--buy a Surge Protector--plug the surge protector prongs into the your respective county adapter, then plug the connected adapter and surge protector into the wall>>>> THEN pull in your respective devices--laptop, cameras, phones, tablets/iPads, iPod etc. This little tip has worked well for me for all my international work trips!!! And you save money on purchasing adapters for varying devices --as well as you cut down on running the risk of blowing out your devices...
****!!!Make sure you plug up the adapter and surge protector up first, THEN plug your devices in the surge protector!!
****!!!Lastly MAKE SURE you get the HIGHEST and MOST-GROUNDED surge protector you can find-- I got mine from Target $19.99 (I am certain there are some awesome ones on Amazon--just happen to purchase mine while in Target). DO NO get a cheap surge protector. I will try to upload a pic/visual sometime soon--feel free to ask me any questions if you have them.
Hope this was helpful-- as I didn't know about the surge protector tip--it may be common knowledge by now...
ANOTHER TIP: (B) OH and make sure you photo copy your passport, license AND make a list of all credit cards--full card numbers, exp dates and the Toll-Free number of the issuer (on back of card), medical cards (group number and travel outside US number) etc and leave a copy in your hotel room (in the safe)-- in case you lose (or it's stole--I have NEVER had this happen to me-better safe than sorry) your bags/backpack etc That way you will ALWAYS have a copy and any information you need somewhere else BESIDES on your person...
Happy AND Safe Traveling,
Global Chic

A tip for travelers!! I bought these adapters and then a Belkin 3 outlet surge protector with dual USB ports. This was the best decision I've ever made. Since the voltage comes out at 240V in Europe, I charged my computer and iPad in the outlets and my phone and camera in the USB port (the USB ports did not fry my phone and camera). All four of these electronics would charge overnight with no problems and be ready to use in the morning. It was nice having the extra plugs, but you need to make sure beforehand to ONLY plug in electronics that are capable of going to 240V!!
And the plus side, if you buy the Belkin, you have a surge protector to use when you get back into the States.

Worked marvelously (& a travel tip!)
By D. Ninneman on July 23, 2016
My family and I just came back from a three week long vacation in Europe. These adapters worked marvelously. I brought along E/F and C. Some of the newer places we stayed at had the surge protector coming from the wall, so it was nice to have the E/F adapter (the C adapter worked just as well in these plugs too).By D.
