Quick answer
Travel adapters should be checked against actual countries visited and device plugs. Multi-region designs still have limits.
What to check
- List every country and stopover.
- Check plug types for accommodation and transit needs.
- Review whether earthed plugs are supported.
- Check power rating and fuse guidance.
- Do not assume voltage conversion unless stated.
Trade-offs
A universal adapter is convenient for mixed trips, but country-specific adapters can be smaller and simpler for one destination.
