voltage convertor for spain
 
I've tried a search for voltage convertors and couldn't come up with anything. What do you suggest and where can we purchase it or should we wait until we get to Barcelona.

I guess you didn't do a google search for voltage converter yet. When you do you'll get 10,600,000 possibles.

And if you use the Fodor Search This Forum box above you'll get a big heap also, but Fodor's doesn't give a count.

You may have trouble in Barcelona since most people who live there don't need a voltage converter.

Do you need a converter or just a plug adaptor?

What devices are you planning to use? Could any of them possibly be dual voltage?

A lot of small appliances do come as dual voltage. My Kodak camera has a dual voltage charger. The hair dryer is dual voltage. We rent an apartment so have to take the dryer. Husband's shaver is dual. We use just adaptor plugs. Please check the voltage on the appliance you are taking so that you get the right converter.
