I was half a year in Asia and Australia on the way here and had a good companion. Only in Japan (Tokyo) nothing was right and I had to borrow the hostel something else :( In the other countries (Australia, Singapore, Taiwan, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, Cambodia, Vietnam) my journey has worked wonderfully the plug. This is a safety plug, you can mind without concern not connect a power strip.
Nevertheless, I would have liked a more compact solution, as this enables a Backpack is already pretty full quickly ...
