xbatt8 Posted January 5, 2016 #1 Share Posted January 5, 2016 There are threads on taking extension cords and also power strips, but has anyone ever found just a simple splitter that works with the outlet on Carnival ships? I would rather not deal with cords and extra plugs that I don't need. Just a simple splitter to make one plug into 2 receptacles. Thanks, Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kamloops50 Posted January 5, 2016 #3 Share Posted January 5, 2016 This is what I take, small. [ATTACH]372634[/ATTACH] By defination that is an extension cord . Any multiple outlets with a cord (no matter how short) is considered an extension cord. This what an multiple outlet spliter looks like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xbatt8 Posted January 5, 2016 Author #4 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Kamloops50, your picture didn't come through. Was it a pic of just a common splitter, or one that your have used on Carnival ships? As many cruises as I have been on, I can't remember what the plug looks like, or if a regular splitter would work. :( Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Wanna_Cruize Posted January 5, 2016 #6 Share Posted January 5, 2016 I got some cheap european converters to use. There are actually two plugs located at the desk in the cabin, one european one and on US one. I actually got two different styles, one that just converts the european plug to 1 US plug (part of a larger set) http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00E0P2GLM?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s01, and one that converts it to 3 US plugs (although you can only really access two of them. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00K7DYEHA?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s01 Whatever style you choose, just make sure it's does NOT have a surge protector in it. The difference in the way the ships are grounded by their steel hull is why surge protectors are banned, since they are a fire-hazard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosefloater Posted January 5, 2016 #7 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Bob, This is what we use. 3 outlet wall adapter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare jimbo5544 Posted January 5, 2016 #8 Share Posted January 5, 2016 One thing to think about, the plugs are usually located close to a side wall so there will not be room to plug anything in on that side. We got one that looks like an L that can flip over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
