Can I use a simple receptacle adapter with a 20W Apple fast charger to charge my iPhone and iPad

Will be traveling to the U.K. this spring. I have an iPhone 15 Pro, also a 13” iPad Pro, as well as ear buds and a couple of other non-Apple cordless items that charge via USB-C. Outlet voltage in U.K. Is 250v. Will I be able to use a simple receptacle adapter (not step-down power converter) with a 20W Apple fast charger to charge my devices?

all of the ac chargers apple make works from 110volt AC 60Hz to 250volt AC 50Hz,

so only a plug converter should be necessary.


if it's third party ac chargers then you should read the on the charger think it's globally required by law to write the ac support on them, at least it is where I live.
