Israel Electric Current



If you plan to bring small electrical appliances to Israel, keep in mind that Israel uses a 220 volt electrical current and the outlet types are different as well (two circular prongs). In order to avoid "frying" any electrical items, bring a voltage converter (note: this is already built into most laptop computers). You will also need a simple adapter to plug your items into the wall.

One place to buy an adapter is here...
also, Kaehler, which is in Highland Park, carries a bunch of adapters.

Anyone find any other places to buy? Leave a comment here to share.
