Electrical Chargers In Thailand

[Michael Coates]

Hi all, apologies for coming here to simply ask for advice but I am not particularly electric-savvy and I don't want to make a mistake on my upcoming trip to Thailand. I like to travel light but because of work I need to take my phone and my laptop with me. I checked the details on the chargers and they are listed below. Both have detachable plugs so I figured I could simply buy compatible plugs with the correct connection to the charger instead of messing around with adapters. I already have a US Figure 8 cable (with 2 straight prongs) which I believe will work in Thailand and I have read that if I buy a Euro cloverleaf cable (with 2 round prongs) that this will also work as the sockets there takes both.

Is there any issue with using a US and a Euro cable that would make them incompatible with any Thai standard cables I'm unaware of or are all of these cables just the same?

Anker Power Per 5 A2124 - Figure 8 Cable
Input: 100-240V 1.1A 50-60Hz
Output 5V=8A (2.4A max per port)

Dell 65W - Cloverleaf 3 Pin Cable
Input: 100-240V 1.7A 50-60Hz
Output 19.55V=3.34A

I have read that "Thailand uses 220V AC electricity. Power outlets feature two-prong round or flat sockets." So I believe my chargers will both work just fine though I can find no mentioned of the Hz figure anywhere.

I guess I'm looking for a little reassurance and guidance to see if I'm on the right path - if anyone has any experience of Thailand and their sockets then I would love to hear from you.

Thanks so much reading and in advance for any help you can offer.
Michael

Power outlets most commonly feature two-prong round or flat sockets.

The following plugs are used:voltage 220 cycles 50 men on it to keep it going .have nice time .

Hmm, that costs £5.50 and if I am correct I can pick up a Euro clover plug for £1.50 off eBay. I was only asking if anyone knew if it would work OK.

Thanks for the reply anyway.

Thanks for that, I've seen it online also and it does suggest my idea will work, I guess I was looking for a little reassurance based on my devices That if I buy a Euro clover leaf cable that will simply just work in Thailand.
