Thanks for all your replies. I can’t stand the adapter plugs and try to avoid them whenever possible, as I have left them in sockets before. I bought a 3-pronged charger when we got into Rome last night; problem solved. The burning incidents both occurred when I bought local chargers (once to charge IPhone and once a battery charger), so there was not a voltage conversion problem. The new charger is working well so far.

You can buy them in airport shops. I take 5-6 plug adaptors along every trip.

Correction to my previous post—the chargers I bought in Rome are the 2 round prong type, not three. The adapter plugs are working just fine with them.

Small devices like chargers are always two pin.
