"An adapter changes the prongs. A converter throttles the juice." BRILLIANT!!

I plan to be a little overly cautious and they thought I will get a converter in addition to my Epicka universal adapter 🤔. My phone still takes a lightning cable, so I’ll just make those adjustments. Thank you so much for sharing your wisdom and knowledge. Love your channel! Thanks for the video👍. Much appreciated!❤️❤️❤️

Not just the voltage that matters, the frequency also does. North America is in 60Hz while Europe is in 50Hz.

I've been watching your videos, and it seems like every time I say to myself, "that's what I do." That's why I keep watching! Thank you.

The problem is countries like Korea and South America use recessed outlets. So even though the prongs fit. The adapter won't fit into the recessed hole.

Nice overview. It’s always better to trickle charge or slow charge any battery item so it doesn’t put stress on the battery but who can wait for that lol. Also I’ve had those two anchor packs. One already went out within a year waiting on anchors response for warranty usually in general, they’re pretty good.

dual voltage devices plus a plug adapter. Presto, problem solved.

Is it like the Anker Nano Travel adapter? I'm clueless about all this new techie stuff for EU travel. Last time I went to Italy was before the flip phone era! I think you used Gettone in pay phones! Remember those?! LOL!!!I <br><br>I also just bought an Anker Nano Power Bank 45Watt, 10,000mAh.

Is the power bank TSA compliant??

I like your pointed commentary. Only, I can't understand the converter/adaptor stuff. Too hard.

China is the same as the USA. China does have the 3 prongs, but only for high-power electricals.

So ,mate,I have now watched a few of your YouTube videos lately. I have to agree with about 80% of your bits of advice. However, 1 on cables . You didn't mention the thin pliable USB A to A or USB C A to USB A to USB C one. The thinner cable. It too has a purpose and is so light and minimalistic, it is to do ( same with the good Cables you have shown ,not including magnetic coiled ones) <br>The wiring g inside these. Cables is important. Perhaps you could go into this. <br>As,someone from Australia, I get fed up with this bloody " oh it has to be the Apple product, it is best. Well that is garbage, and US and Canadians get suckered into the rubbish Battery Life,the you have to buy this separately we all know it is a Salrs/ Profit scam<br>Most of the World uses Android phones etc. But to ho on a bit. The Epica Plug in charger with it's own outlets underneath is brilliant. Due to its weight and thinness, it won't generally pull out of the zillion times used wall socket points in Hotels, Airbnb etc.<br>A lot of the World also handle 240V with ease, it is the lesser 110V that can be the worry. <br>So,I off to Peru,Bolivia, and Chile and the 6000 metres Altiplano. Could you do a Video for all on what really cold and really Hot climates do to your phones, Power Chargers etc. Even travelling with my CPAP MINI, I have the co settings sorted by the Manufacturer people. As well I have a Battery Pack and a ZOLTA 160 Watt DC,AC converter. With the safely switch off for overheat, or problem.<br>Sadly most of my American friends have only ever had 2 weeks to Holiday with. Yes there is Thanksgiving ( nightmare time for travel and stuff ups) Here we get 4 to 6 weeks leave to use all or split how we like. <br>Great channel @Better Latitude <br>Cheers from Perth, Western Australia
