Italy Power Outlets
 
What type of power does Italy use? Is it the same as most of Europe/Britain?

I am looking to buy a power-convertor for some electrical gadgets.

Thanks,
Adam

In Italy we use 220 volts

Hi adam,

Are you sure that your gadgets aren't dual voltage.

See if the label says 110-240 V.

The power is the same but the outlets aren't. You need plug adaptors with round prongs.

We are from the US and we have an adapter that will switch from UK, to other Europeon countries as well as others. It is all in one plug. Target sells the adapters very reasonably priced.
