I live in Canada, therefore all of my plugs use the
American-style plug with two parallel flat blades above a circular grounding pin or plug with two parallel flat blades. With Electricity 110-120V 60HzHz.

I am looking for a Universal adapter/voltage converter, can anyone suggest (and possible provide links) to?

I am hoping to find one that does not contain allot of different pieces, all in one would be the ideal.

Hi! I'm trying to pick one, too. I saw this one on Amazon.com last night. It's all in 1 piece and it has gotten pretty high reviews.

Hope this helps!

Hi,
This isnt going to help you unless you plan to go to Thailand and dont need it before that, but I bought the best and cheapest travel adapter in the world last week here. I know this sounds a little geeky, but I really was impressed, it's everything you need in a travel adapter, it converts any plug to any plug, is sturdy, small and has a surge protector built in, all for 200 baht, (which is around £3/$6 I think)

So like I said, no use unless you're in Thailand, but if you are, or are heading there and need one, wait till you get there. They sell them all over, but especially in Pantip Plaza in Bangkok.
