I recently was shipped an external hard drive from the UK. But the power adapter did not include US-style plugs (type A). And I live in the US. This handy travel plug adapter plugs into any of 4 different plug styles, and most important for me, it accepts all of them as well! So I can plug this into US-style plugs and plug UK appliances into it and vice-versa. The travel plug adapter does not alter the properties of the power signal, so I expect the appliance's adapter has to be nimble enough to accept either 110 or 220, but in this case my external hard drive did just fine.

Traveling thoughout the U.K., this little do-dad made it easy for me to plug in my laptop ANYwhere we went.

I brought it so far to Germany (Type C/F) Turkey (Type C/F), and Australia (Type-I). Used with Type-A (laptop adapter without the earthing prong) Worked without a problem. Just two (possibly unfair) complaints. (1) It is a bit too large (maybe not a problem for Americans). If it were made in Japan or Korea, it would be at least 100 times smaller. (2) It was not firmly stuck. Especially, if there is a switch near the plug, because the size is too large, the adapter conflicts with the switch and the switch prevents the adapter to be firmly stuck. But at least it worked so I do not complain. I would buy another one if it were smaller, but not.
