power converter

What type of converter do we need to take with us to Italy for our various chargers?
Thx, Bart

Look at your chargers. If they say something like "100-240 volts" then they will adapt to Europe's 220 volt current no problem. All you will need is the adapter plug to fit Italian outlets. If they only say "110 volts," then you will need a converter. They usually come in two types....ones of high wattage for things like hair dryers, curlers, etc.....another for low wattage devices like battery chargers, cameras, PDA's and the like. Make sure you choose the right power converter to avoid all risk of damage.
