Volkano Traveller Series UK/other socket to SA plug – VK-8010-WT

Product description

The Volkano VK8010 WH Traveller Adaptor SA 3-Pin is a travel plug adapter designed to allow international plugs, such as (UK, USA and European), to connect to the South African 15A three-pin, Type M, socket system. It does not convert voltage, so users must ensure their devices are compatible with the local voltage (220-240V AC).

Product features

• Universal Input Socket: The female socket is universal, designed to accept most international plug types, including those from the UK, USA, Europe, Hong Kong, Kenya, and Botswana.
• South African Output Plug: It features a South African (Type-M) large 3-prong male plug, making it compatible with local 15A/16A Type M wall sockets.
• Safety: The adapter is earthed, which adds a layer of safety for both the user and connected devices. It also has a secure, snug fit to prevent loose connections.
• Voltage & Current Rating: It supports a maximum voltage of 250V AC and a rated current of up to 15A (some sources specify 10A max, others 16A max).
• No Voltage Conversion: It is important to note that this device is a plug adapter only and does not convert voltage. Users must ensure their electronic devices have a universal voltage range (typically 100-250V) to avoid damage.
• Durable & Compact Design: According to merchant descriptions, it is made of high-quality material and has a compact, lightweight design, making it easy to carry for travel.
