Important Voltage Reminder:
This universal power adapter does NOT convert voltage. It is a plug adapter only. Ensure your devices connected support 100-250V dual voltage. Do not use with high-power appliances that require voltage conversion, such as hair dryers, curling irons, straighteners, coffee machines, or electric kettles. Using the adapter with incompatible high-power devices may cause damage to the device or the adapter.
