Europe Power Adapter

Nope, no worries, as long as by "plug-in converter" you mean a simple adapter that converts your two- or three-prong US plug to the UK plug (and not a transformer of some sort). Your MBP power adapter works on 100-240 Volts, 50/60 Hz, you just need the plug to fit.

Have a good trip!

I'm glad I read this before I left for Germany tomorrow. I thought I had everything covered. I guess not!!

Okay, I'm bringing 2 15" MBPs and 12" PB. Yes, there's more than me going.

I had bought a converter. But, in reading its directions and now this forum, I'm not going to use it for my precious Apple products.

I did buy an adapter plug to plug in between the voltage converter and the German outlets. It's universal enough that an American plug just plugs into the back of it. Does this mean I can plug my power adapters into this little $4 generic plug adapter and then plug that into a German outlet?

Does this mean I do NOT need to run to the Apple store in the morning to buy their universal power adapter box of plugs??

Please! Help! I know it's last minute but I thought I'd taken care of everything.

Thanks

Christopher

I would have thought so. Take a look at it. As long as it converts the standard American Pins so that you can plug them directly into a German wall outlet you'll be fine.

As you say, avoid the converter.

Best of luck.
