Manufacturer description

It takes both 3-prong NEMA 5-15P plugs and 2-prong NEMA 1-15P flat-pin plugs, so the same adapter works with a grounded laptop power brick and an ungrounded phone charger. It measures 2.5 x 1.5 x 1.5 inches, small enough for a carry-on pocket or a power-bank pouch. The manufacturer rates it for a maximum load of 10A at 250V.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this adapter work in Japan and the Philippines?

Yes. It plugs into Type A (NEMA 1-15) two-flat-pin outlets, the standard Ceptics lists for Japan and the Philippines. It also lists dozens of other Type A countries, including Mexico, Canada and parts of the Caribbean.

Does the Ceptics IG-6 convert voltage?

No. It changes the plug shape only and does not transform voltage or current. Use it only with dual-voltage devices, and check that the input range on your device label covers the local supply.

Can I plug a 3-prong US laptop charger into it?

Yes. The adapter accepts standard 3-prong NEMA 5-15P plugs as well as 2-prong NEMA 1-15P flat-pin plugs. Type A wall outlets have no ground pin, so the ground prong will not connect to a ground at the wall.

How big is it and how much power can it handle?

It measures 2.5 x 1.5 x 1.5 inches. The manufacturer rates it for a maximum load of 10A at 250V. Check your device's amperage before plugging in high-draw appliances.

Is it certified, and what warranty does it have?

It is ETL approved and RoHS compliant, and it comes with a Ceptics limited lifetime warranty. Check the product listing or contact Ceptics for the full warranty terms.
