It's very little bag space and better safe than sorry. Plugging my cell phone in direct to the outlet makes it blazing hot. Because of that, I never plugged my laptop in without the converter. My hair clippers go haywire without it. You all, go ahead without one. For me, I like running 110 on 110 devices, And yes, Mark, I do know what I'm talking about...do you??
Yes, it's not just the adapter you need. You will need a voltage converter. Don't listen to all the ones saying no problem, same plug, just plug it in. You will fry and blow-up all your electronics. You need a 220v to 110v converter. I got mine off Amazon before I left and it's lasted years...does great, multi plug unit. The brand is Bestek.
Nobody here has mentioned that, unless you have proof that you have met your bf "in real" before, Philippines immigration will 99.9% not let you leave the country.
And if, for some reason, you don't take the first leg of the national flight and plan to leave for your international flight from the second airport, your whole trip is canceled. I learned this the hard way lol
