Product Overview
This European travel plug adapter by Addtam is designed for travelers visiting most countries across Europe. It transforms a single Type C outlet into three standard AC outlets and four USB charging ports—two USB-C and two USB-A—making it ideal for powering multiple devices simultaneously during international trips. Compact in size and weighing little, it’s engineered to fit seamlessly into luggage or carry-on bags without taking up excess space. The adapter supports devices with dual voltage (100V–250V), which covers the majority of modern electronics like smartphones, tablets, laptops, and small appliances. With built-in safety features and compliance for use on cruise ships, this product serves as a reliable travel essential for business professionals, students, and frequent flyers heading to European destinations.
Key Features
- 6-in-1 Multi-Function Design: Converts one European Type C socket into three standard American-style AC outlets and four USB ports (2 USB-C + 2 USB-A), supporting up to 2500W total output. The three AC outlets are spaced apart to prevent blocking, allowing bulky chargers to be used at the same time.
- Dual Fast Charging USB-C Ports: Features two upgraded USB-C ports capable of delivering up to 5V/3A (15W max), offering charging speeds approximately 30% faster than conventional adapters. These ports support fast-charging protocols and are compatible with a wide range of modern devices.
- Smart Charging Technology: Automatically detects connected devices and adjusts power delivery for optimal efficiency. All four USB ports combined provide a total output of 5V/3.1A, ensuring rapid charging for phones, tablets, e-readers, and other USB-powered gadgets.
- Multi-Level Safety Protection: Built-in internal protection units work together with a flame-resistant polycarbonate (PC) shell rated at 1382°F to safeguard against over-voltage, over-current, over-charge, and short circuits. This ensures device safety during use in various environments.
- Cruise Ship Compliant: Designed without surge protection or extension cords to meet cruise line regulations that prohibit such features. Its compact, non-surge design makes it safe and permitted onboard most cruise vessels.
- Compact and Portable Size: Measuring only 1.8” x 2.5” x 2.8”, this lightweight adapter takes up minimal space in your luggage. Ideal for hotel rooms, dormitories, bathrooms, or any travel accommodation with limited outlets.

Benefits & Use Cases
This adapter is particularly useful for travelers who need to charge several devices while staying in European hotels, Airbnb rentals, or university dorms where wall outlets may be scarce or spaced far apart. The inclusion of both USB-C and USB-A ports means compatibility with newer and older smartphones, Bluetooth headphones, smartwatches, e-readers, and portable speakers. Since it does not convert voltage, it’s best suited for dual-voltage devices common among international electronics brands. Business travelers appreciate its ability to keep phones, tablets, and laptop chargers powered throughout meetings or sightseeing. Students benefit from having reliable access to charging stations near beds or desks without needing additional converters. Its compliance with cruise ship policies also makes it a practical choice for vacationers who want to avoid purchasing onboard electricity at premium rates.
Important Notes
- Not a Voltage Converter: This adapter only changes the physical plug shape—it cannot convert high-voltage (110V) devices to run on European 220–240V systems. Devices must already support 100V–250V input. Examples include most modern hair dryers, curling irons, straighteners, electric razors, and toothbrushes labeled ‘dual voltage’ or ‘worldwide use’.
- Compatibility Note: While compatible with most European countries including Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Greece, Austria, Belgium, Croatia, Denmark, Finland, Hungary, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Switzerland, and others listed, this adapter does not work in the United Kingdom, Ireland, or Scotland, which use Type G plugs.
- The package includes only the adapter unit; no cables, converters, or additional accessories are provided unless otherwise specified by the seller.
