razoredge Posted March 19, 2005 Posted March 19, 2005 Hey Robb & Elissa , When you went to Japan, did you use any US appliances over there? I've heard that most Japan sockets are class II, meaning they only have two holes instead of the three (earth pin). I've got something that will do the trick for converting the voltage, but it has a 3 pin configuration. Is there some kind of simple adaptor that latches on for the Japanese wall sockets? Only a few days left now! Razor "I'll die of embaressment if I can't straighten my hair for Disneyland" Edge
SharkTums Posted March 19, 2005 Posted March 19, 2005 We just bought a bunch of those '3 to 2' plug converters. The voltage and everything else is the same. We charged cameras, computers, all kinds of stuff like that and it was just fine. I didn't have any hair stuff so I don't know if that's any different since it's a stronger appliance!

razoredge Posted March 19, 2005 Author Posted March 19, 2005 Thanks Elissa. I'm in the UK right now and I haven't see any 3 to 2 coverters anywhere - I guess they're not needed here. I suppose I'll have to wait until I get into Narita and pick one up there. My boyfriend thinks it's funny that I might have to walk round with SUPER curly hair! Razor "I hate curly hair!" Edge
jarmor Posted March 20, 2005 Posted March 20, 2005 Wow that is definitely something good to know about because I would be crying if I were to get over there and couldnt charge my camera or anything like that!
