Apple World Travel Kit – Power Up Like a Local
When traveling abroad, one of the first questions is, “What kind of power plugs do they use?”
In the past, I’ve brought bulky power converters or cheap all-in one plug adapters.
Now I use Apple’s World Travel Adapter kit to charge my Apple products (iPhone and iPod) while traveling.
The kit is $39 and comes with a USB power adapter and cable ($29 alone) and different duck heads that can be fitted to your power adapter to work with outlets in North America, Japan, China, United Kingdom, Continental Europe, Korea, Australia, and Hong Kong.
The duck heads work with MagSafe adapters (and G4’s) as well. Apple’s power adapters are multi-voltage ready so all you need to do is fit on the right duck head plug and you’re good to go.
The downside is these will only work with your Apple (or USB powered) electronics. The up side is you can power your MacBook at a cafe in Paris and look like a local (except for your NASCAR hat.)
