Yankee in Ireland: Adaptor for Apple Products?
« on: August 26, 2015, 09:51:37 AM »
So I'll be one-bagging it in a hostel in Dublin for eleven days in Oct.-Nov. (Thank you rewards miles ticket!) I have a MacBook Air 11" and an iPhone 4s to take with. Can I just buy a standard power adapter for Irish electricity and plug them in to re-charge...or is there something else I need to avoid frying them? There is so much tech out there for sale that I can't see the forest for the trees.

Check your power supply plugs. They should say whether they can take ac up to 240v (as in Ireland). Most, however do.  If they do, then you only need an adapter to push them into the outlet.

Thanks--the REI article was exactly what I was looking for, and I'd recommend that article to others. I did need a magnifying glass in a good light to be able to read the voltage info on my devices, but it was clearly marked.

 

Wow, a phone plan for fifteen bucks!
