Plug Sockets

[Mostonian]

Can anyone tell me what kind of plug sockets are on the Queen Elizabeth. Thought I had read that it was a mix of of UK and US, but I can’t find the posting. Just in case it makes a difference we have a balcony cabin. Thanks.

There are 3 types, one UK, one EU and 2 US. We normally take an EU to UK adapter to give us the extra UK socket.

Not sure about the QE, but on the QM2, outside if your cabin you'll only find British sockets. I have sometimes wanted to plug in my laptop to work and now carry a US-British adapter about the ship to do so.

Thank you everyone for your replies.

Remember that the US power sockets are only 110V - so for autosensing electronics they charge at 1/2 the speed compared to when plugged into EU/UK sockets at 220V

We have a tiny, travel coffeemaker. I love using it when we have 240 volts available. It makes the coffee in half the time. It's not auto-sensing, so we have to remember to set the voltage back to 110 when we get home or it takes forever to make a cup!
