Product Information
Full details
This Desiretech EU Travel Adaptor (2 Pack) is designed for UK travelers needing to power their devices in most European countries. Its key benefit is providing a safe and reliable connection for high-power devices up to 3120W. A minor caveat is that it converts UK 3-pin to EU 2-pin, meaning devices with only a 3-pin EU plug will not be compatible.

FAQs
What countries can I use this adapter in?
This adapter is suitable for most European countries with standard 2-pin outlets, including France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Netherlands, Portugal, and many others.
Will this adapter convert the voltage for my devices?
No, this adapter only changes the plug shape from UK 3-pin to EU 2-pin. It does not convert voltage. You must ensure your electronic devices are dual voltage or compatible with the local European voltage (220-240V).
Can I use this adapter for my UK 3-pin shaver adapter?
Yes, provided your shaver adapter is designed for 220-240V input. The adapter's high power rating supports even such lower-power devices.
What is the maximum wattage this adapter can handle?
The adapter supports up to 3120W at 16A and 250V~, making it suitable for high-power appliances.
Does the 2-pack include different types of adapters?
No, the 2-pack includes two identical UK to EU 2-pin travel adapters.
Is this adapter safe for high-power devices like hair dryers?
Yes, its 3120W rating makes it safe for most travel hair dryers and other high-power appliances commonly used by travelers.
What does CE-certified mean?
CE certification indicates that the product meets European Union standards for health, safety, and environmental protection, assuring it has undergone rigorous testing.
Troubleshooting
Device not powering on when plugged into the adapter.
Ensure your device's plug is fully inserted into the adapter and the adapter is securely plugged into the European wall socket. Check if the European socket is functioning by testing with another device. Verify that your appliance is compatible with European voltage (220-240V).
Adapter feels loose in the wall socket.
Try a different wall socket, as socket variations can occur. If the issue persists across multiple sockets, the adapter's pins might be slightly misaligned; ensure they are straight and try again. If it remains loose, discontinue use for safety.
Adapter becomes unusually warm during use.
While some warmth is normal under heavy load, excessive heat indicates a potential issue. Ensure you are not exceeding the 3120W (16A) limit. If the adapter is very hot to the touch, unplug it immediately and check for blockages or damage. Contact customer service if the problem continues.
