Shop / rootoma travel plug adapter
Can the Epicka adapter be used for a hair dryer? This depends on the hair dryer's specifications. Hair dryers labeled "100-240V, 50/60Hz" with a power rating under 2000W can be used in 220-240V countries like those in Europe. Can the Epicka adapter charge a laptop in Europe without a converter? Yes, most laptops are compatible with a 100-240V charging range, so the Epicka adapter can be used to charge laptops in 220-240V countries without needing a voltage converter.
Does the Epicka adapter work in Switzerland or Brazil? The adapter itself cannot directly plug into the recessed hexagonal sockets in Switzerland and Brazil, but an additional adapter included in the package can be used to connect the Epicka adapter in these countries. The user claims they cannot find a plug that fits the UK socket, but Epicka states the adapter works in the UK. This is because the UK plug on the Epicka Pocket 100 adapter shares 2 prongs with the EU plugs, and the middle pin needs to be pulled out and flipped to use it in the UK.
For travel to South Africa and India, Epicka has a new model X232 adapter that is compatible with those locations. Users should search for "EPICKA X232 adapter" on Amazon and select Type D for India or Type M for South Africa.
The Epicka adapters come in several plug types to provide worldwide compatibility: - Type C - Compatible in Brazil, most of Europe, and other countries - Type G - Compatible in the UK, Ireland, and related regions - Type A - Compatible in the USA, Japan, and related regions - Type I - Compatible in Australia, China, and related regions
The Epicka travel adapter series includes models like Pocket 100, TA-105, TA-105C, TA-105 Pro, TA-105 Max, TA-205, and X232, with varying features such as number of USB ports, power delivery, and dual AC outlets.
Customer reviews for the Epicka adapters are very positive, with ratings of 4.4 to 4.7 out of 5 stars across different models. Prices range from $9.99 to $49.99 depending on the specific adapter.
Important notes: The Epicka adapter is not a voltage converter and should not be used with high-power appliances over 2000W like many hair dryers and irons, even if they claim dual voltage compatibility. Manufacturers often do not recommend using such high-power devices outside their native voltage. It's crucial to check the specifications before traveling, especially for electric toothbrushes, shavers, flossers, steamers, and straighteners.
