Seems like a silly question, but if I'm gonna go to the trouble of following y'alls advice, I wanna be right. :)

 

Several people have suggested in the "What To Pack" threads bringing a multi-outlet extension cord if you have several items to charge (laptop, iPod, cell, etc), since there is only one outlet in the rooms. Is it a two prong or three prong?

 

I'm curious--in a GS, can I expect any more outlets?

 

Thanks!

Can't help with the GS, but the American 110v outlets are 3 prong. The 240V european sockets are 2 prong with a ground (or should that be sea:D) tab

Even if they do have a few extra outlets in a GS, pack along the power bar anyhow. Yuo'll still wind up using it. Battery chargers, phone chargers, laptop power supplies.. List goes on and on.

All modern electrical outlets in the USA are three prong as required by the electrical code. All of the modern ships are thee prong 120 volt 60 hertz. European standards are different and the electrical outlets are configured differently.
