Knowledge is Power

When traveling internationally, it is important to remember that different electrical currencies exist and that not all outlets accept the same type of plug in...so knowledge is power. The following link lists different currents and electrical outlet usages worldwide in an easy to find chart by country.  I like this resource because it also talks about specific cities on the grid, in the note section for that country.  It will tell you what adaptors and are needed and even shows pictures.  It also talks about the fact that you may need an electric converter.  So make sure before you travel that you do your research and know what type of power will be available and what power accessories may be needed.
