Make sure your electronic devices stay powered, even while you travel, with the help of this Insignia™ NS-TAPS5 global adapter kit, which includes 4 adapters that convert plugs in North America, Europe, Great Britain and most other countries.

Worked great in the UK

Was super concerned about traveling with my IPad Air 2 and my HTC 10 phone and wondered if I needed a converter. Turns out I didn't -- most devices are dual voltage these days. Just plug in the devices charger to the adapter with the proper plug for the outlet and plug it in. Simple! This comes with a range of plugs if you're country hopping and is compact because of how they cleverly fit together. I've only used it in the UK, but it's worked great so far. (Side note, I also bought Insignia's 3 USB International wall charger and that also works great).
I would recommend this to a friend!

Keep your phone fully charged with this Insignia international wall charger. It has multiple plugs so that you can use sockets in a wide variety of countries in order to add power to your device.

I'm currently in the UK with an iPad Air 2 and my HTC 10 phone and Kindle Voyage (yes, I'm one of those weird tech mixers). Anyway, was concerned about frying my devices but the 3-port USB International Wall Charger works like a charm (well, haven't needed to charge the Kinlde yet but assuming it will be fine). Simply attached the correct plug adapter to the unit, removed the USB cable from its original charger and plugged the USB cable into the international wall USB charger and plugged it into the outlet -- works like a charm. The USB port lights up to show it's working and my phone and iPad show they're charging.
Most tablets and smartphones these days are dual voltage so are built to handle a range of power (110-240v, I believe) so as long as your device falls within that range and is a dual votltage device, you'll be fine). It is not a converter, so don't use if your device is rated as single voltage and actually needs the power converted.

I noticed this works with iPhones. Does it also work with Android smartphones (like the Motorola Droid Maxx), iPads, and MacBooks? Also, I noticed in the picture that the slanted plug works in Australia and New Zealand. Would it also work in China?
Yes, I am currently in the UK and using it to charge my iPad Air 2 and my HTC 10 Android phone.
