    Moving to the Dumaguete area next week from the states... anyone know where I can pick up a couple of adapters so I can run my laptop, etc?

    Most hardware stores sell them. Definitely the one upstairs in Robinson Mall.

    Good luck with your move and transition. Where are you planning on living here?

    Down in the Siaton area, below the hillsides south-south east of Lake Balanan.

    You probably will not need an adapter.
    The laptop charger accepts a range of electricity. 110v - 240v and 50 or 60 Hz
    US 120v 60 Hz
    Philippines 220v 60 Hz

    The outlets here are the same as in the US. Two flat prongs. Often there is no ground so you can either remove the ground prong from your plug or get an adapter.

    The big hardware stores here sell short extension cables with 3 or 4 sockets attached and also USB charging from most of them and these accept a multitude of different plugs even the 3pin from UK a great buy and not expensive.
