Voltage Converter?

I'm going to study abroad in Europe and I want to bring just a few things that need to be plugged in... like chargers and a hair dryer



and of course they are the US plug



I'm going to UK, France, Germany, Austria, Slovakia, and Hungary



Do I need just a US to UK and US to Euro converter??? Cause I can't find out anything from google or even someone who lives in London.. Thank you



Voltage Converter?

Yes you do need converters. These can be bought in Bed Bath and Beyond. They have all types of voltage converters.



Voltage Converter?

Here's a country list, and the voltage they use:

You'll need a converter, plus a plug attachment.

Voltage Converter?

England and Europe have different plugs so you would need 2 different types of adapters. Also they use 220volts and the USA uses 110volts so you either have to have appliances that can take either or have a converter. I would advise that you purchase a new hair dryer and personal care products in England or Europe and get an adapter plug. Most chargers are set up to take either 110volts or 220volts check just read the small print on your adapter. See the following website for a list and description of plugs used in each country. http://www.escapeartist.com/global/Plug_...
