As long as it does NOT have a surge protector.

thinfool Posted December 16, 2018 #3 Share Posted December 16, 2018 150 joules is an operating function of a surge suppressor....so no, it is not allowed and you risk confiscation if you were to try to take it aboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Two Wheels Only Posted December 16, 2018 #4 Share Posted December 16, 2018 A surge protector will have a rating in Joules of energy, as well as the maximum voltage it can take from a power spike. If you find those numbers either on the box it came it or on the strip itself, then it is a surge protector. Unrelated note, the "lock" on the wardrobe doesn't look very effective.

bubblegummermom Posted December 16, 2018 Author #5 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Thank you everyone. This is the response I needed to know, so I’m not bringing it. A regular extension cord it is then. Nancy 😎 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes the lock is definitely not effective but does the job of keeping that darn door closed! 😂😂🤪 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nancy 😎 We don't have very many devices that really need three prong outlets like a CPAP or anything so we've converted to using devices like this that plug into the 220v outlet for Euro devices: https://www.amazon.com/Syncwire-Charger-Adapter-Samsung-Android/dp/B011KPRE1G/ For us it works to charge all our devices and security never bats an eye, and uses a receptacle that we would never use otherwise. That leaves the three prong outlet for my wife's curling iron and whatever else she brings in that case of mysteries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
