If you have heavy-duty appliances that support 230V, you should change the plugs, otherwise they become fire risks. (And heavy-duty equipment frequently need to be grounded, which many adapters don't support)


If they don't support 230V, you need a transformer or power converter, not just a simple adapter. Probably not worthwhile.

For normal light-weigth stuff (again, if they support 230V), you can get adapters at Interdiscount and similar places.
