This is an adapter not a converter. If you plugin an incompatible device (110v device on 220v plug) using this adapter, then it will be a toast no matter if it is small or big
Most phone and laptop chargers can handle 220V easily. Not sure how you fried a new laptop. Confused

Great price and an absolute bargain vs buying at the airport/once you're already there.

The 6-pack with worldwide variety is only $7.56, if you prefer having one of each vs. 3 of a single type. Think it's a better deal since you only need to charge your laptop (or multiple port adapter) - which has ports to charge other devices.

I bought the 6 pack, might go somewhere, uh, someday.

This is why I should stay off Slickdeals a little more often...

Many countries have 220 volts @ 50 Hz. So an adapter is not enough for many US appliances. You need a step-down transformer (preferably with 1800 watts). This is especially true in many Asian countries where voltage can spike as high as 300 volts.

Not trying to TC, but here it goes:

Personal experience and suggestions:

Try first on an old device when you arrive. Something of a small/or no value. I used one of these types of devices, it fried my hair dryer, AND a new laptop.

I thought that as well. Plug this into the wall, made sure all good, plugged the hair dryer, burn smell, gone.

I thought it was only the dryer which gave me the problem, then the dreadful thing happened.

There really is almost no case use for a travel transformer. Most modern electronics can handle both voltages, so a simple adapter will do.

If you have a more analog type of appliance that does not have an option to switch voltage, you probably shouldn't bother traveling with it. A transformer is heavy, bulky, and many have fairly low wattage rating. If you really need something like a hairdryer, just buy a cheap switchable voltage type.
