    Many modern devices can “float” between 110-220v as well as 50 and 60Hz.

    In practice, it means you don’t need older style, larger adapters which actually change the voltage and frequency for you. You can just use the cheaper adapters which only change the plug.

    To be sure, just read the little print by the power area on whatever device(s) you’re bringing. The ranges will be listed.

    Done it many times.

      This has been my experience. I use any random adapter I find in Walmart or Amazon for cheap and they last forever, and my phone charger is setup like you say so it’s fine in Germany, Ireland, UK, etc.
