In almost all countries, iPhone does not have any problem about the voltage when I watch this. In other words it means that the transformer to change the voltage is not necessary.
But your plug might useless to insert to the outlet at the hotel.Because the shapes of the plug are different!
What is the type of plug?
The plug adopted in Japan is called A type, and two flat model pins form a line lengthwise.
A country, the area that this is just available to is Japan and the United States or Canada, but there is the shape of various plugs all over the world.
When you stay in the country where is different from Japan in the shape of an outlet and the plug for such a reason, the conversion plug to insert it in the plug of a different shape becomes essential.
As for the conversion plug, the thing of the multi-type is convenient
It is this conversion plug that I purchased for overseas travel.
Comfort that the shape of the plug mouth supports A C O, BF, SE type and does the USB correspondence more.
It seems to useful even if I go to any country .
However,I did not know how to use after having purchased it, I will explain with real photographs
in Malaysia（Type BF）
The shape of the outlet in Malaysia is Type BF. There are three flat hole.
Multiple type plug become flat plastic part and two round sticks.
As I thought three flat plastic should be used, I was worry if it fits.
I insert an adapter of Mac. My adapter has sticker of Github.(^^)w
Wow! I’ve done! It was able to charge iPhone and Mac without a problem!!
