aussie_at_sea Posted September 18, 2018 #1 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Hi there! Wondering what is the best type of power adapter to use for Australian appliances on NCL Pride of America? (2 iPhones, 2 cameras, laptop and hairdryer). Many thanks in advance! ☺️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sauer-kraut Posted September 18, 2018 #2 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Leave the hair dryer at home, unless it is a dual voltage! Just get an adapter for the Australian to North American plugs. The cell phone and cameras etc will be fine with our electricity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mking8288 Posted September 18, 2018 #3 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Expect to find one usable 110 volts outlet (USA, 2 or 3 prong) and one 220 volts (European - 2 round pins) outlet in the typical stateroom on the POA. Do not pack or bring any extension cord with surge protection circuits for fire/electrical safety reasons. Ditto on leaving hairdryer home, the ones in the staterooms are fine & powerful enough for DW's shoulder length curly hair styling - BYO and risk tripping the safety circuit breaker & a lengthy wait for electrician to respond & to ask questions, as room steward aren't always able to reset it themselves on their own. I recommend a dual voltage 5 or 6 port USB charger, mine is an older 4 port from Anker, high output rated to charge 4 devices at 2 amps & higher at the same time, use oem or certified equivalent lightning cables, so you will only need n use one outlet, either 220 or 110 volts ... and free up the other one. I carry both a 6' and 10' USB extension cable to extend the reach/run of those typical 1 meter/3 ft. usb cables.
