USA and Europe Travel adapter questions?
Australian here. Heading to USA, Canada and Europe in Jun/Jul/Aug.
Is this type of thing all I need?
http://cgi.ebay.com.au/TRAVEL-PLUG-CONVERTER-AC-ADAPTOR-AU-UK-EU-US-UNIVERS-/320672162591?pt=AU_Travel_Acc&hash=item4aa98ce31f#ht_1962wt_1139
Not exactly that one but something similar... just so I can charge phone and camera and laptop.
Do I need something else for the US since their voltage is 110 and ours is 240? And Europe?
Hmmm maybe I'm missing something here, but as I see it I'm still going to have to get 2 (one for US and one for EU). And its not really that handy having one thats "universal" since I only have one type I want to plug into it (aussie style), and it still only has one set of pins specific to a country or region.
Save yourself the money of buying one that just fits for certain areas in the world. Get the universal travel adapter that works for EVERYWHERE. It will look something like this:

You can find it in any travel shop, or electronics shop.
