Just a quick question - what kind of power/voltage is used in Argentina? I can't seem to find that answer anywhere, either here or in my travel books. Is it the same as Canada/USA? Do I need an adapter?

Thanks for your help!

J.

In other words you'll need a transformer to change the voltage and an adaptor so that it fits in the wall. You can see voltage listings and plug types for most countries over here: http://www.kropla.com/electric2.htm

Before you buy a transformer though, check the specification on the devices you want to bring. Many today can plug into both 110 and 220V.
