Okay, this is a strange question...
If I were wanting to charge a Kindle or iPod via mains electricity, is this possible (or potentially explosive) considering the Vietnamese voltage. I have a mains charger for both devices but don't want to blow them up!
Excuse my electrical lack of knowledge  |

| Get yourself a power strip, if you want to be safe, rather than sorry. They have a fuse, so it should blow before your device does! |

A power strip and a surge protector are similar. But they're two different things.
