Hello

Could anyone please check this converter/adapters work in Switzerland?

http://www.target.com/p/trave l-smart-converter-adapater-set/-/A-14021662?ref=tgt_adv_XS000000&A FID=google_pla_df&CPNG =PLA_Luggage+Shopping_ Brand&adgroup=SC_Lugga ge&LID=700000001170770 pgs&network=g&device=c &location=9030994&gcli d=Cj0KCQjwlK7cBRCnARIs AJiE3MjEWB4YQ8tce3eod2 vSCijhqOHYIztWuSHDLAQq P1Qqc4wcQ4IV5AMaAovCEA Lw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds

Also please see the attached pictures.

This product is claimed that it could be used in Switzerland. Usually a Swiss socket is sunk into the wall, and has 3 pin, but this product has only 2 pin. Please see attached picture 2 : adapter 2 ( I mean the second adapter from left )

Could anyone please let me know if this converter/adapters work in Switzerland? Thanks a lot.

Second from left will work. The key is the hexagonal surround. There are three hole and two hole receptacles in Switzerland.

Hello Slowpoke,

Thanks a lot for your fast reply. I have some more questions.

1. Could two-pin adapter plug into three-hold receptacles?

2. If my adapter doesn’t work (or get lost…) in Switzerland, where can I buy USA to Switzerland power adapter in Switzerland? I mean, like train stations or market…

Thank you.

I usually travel with only 2 prong plug adapters. I’m trying for mental picture of using one in a 3-hole receptacle. I’m drawing a blank. However, I’m 99 % sure they will work.

I did travel with an HP lap top, for a while. That required a three hole receptacle, thus, a 3-prong adapter. Actually, come to think of it, I still have one buried in my suitcase, but don’t use it.

Definitely, at train stations in the main cities in the convenience stores , and, usually at convenience stores everywhere – Aperto, Volg, Kiosk. I’d expect to find them at Migros or COOP or Denner stores, although I’ve never bought one there.

They’re cheaper in the USA.

Try Amazon, for example.

Hi iliveinLA,

You won’t have an issue finding an adapter in most towns if needed. Interdiscount and Fust are other electronic stores that can be found in larger towns and train stations.

For a few more details on adapters look here: http://www.myswissalps.com/ab outswitzerland/practic al/swissoutlet
