If you are traveling across multiple continents with more than a few electronic devices, you may want to invest in a universal adapter. Keeping track of voltages and different devices is bound to leave you searching for the adapter you forgot to bring after your plane lands late in a city you don’t know at all. Luckily, there are plenty of options for universal adapters you can keep on hand. In fact, you may want to buy two so you don’t have to worry about keeping your computer charged for that deadline. There are a few options out there and they are all relatively affordable, coming in at less than $20.

Vcoo  are available on Amazon. Apple also sells a World Traveler Adapter Kit. These include USB chargers and work in more than 150 countries, but are, unfortunately, not functional in South Africa, India, Switzerland and Italy. It seems no truly universal adapter can exist because of the differences required in voltage outside of this core of roughly 150 countries. In order to be able to access your electronic devices in South Africa, purchase the Go Travel Adapter.

And for travel in India, the Ceptics GP-10  should allow you to work throughout most of the country.
