Digital camera reviews of Lenmar AC5 World Travel Adapter Plug Set

Digital camera Review: No fuss, worked well
Summary: 5 Stars

I purchased this set for a trip to England. The adapter worked like a charm with several different electronic devices that I brought with me. I stayed in three different hotels in different parts of the country and never had any trouble whatsoever. Plug this into the wall, plug your device into this adapter, and you are good to go. It was just that easy and worked perfectly every time. The only thing you have to watch is that whatever you plug in can run on the foreign voltage or you'll need a transformer as well. Fortunately, most devices are now made to run on voltage ranging from 110 to 220 but you should always check just to be sure you don't short out anything.

Digital camera Review: Not What I Expected
Summary: 3 Stars

I'm sure that this is a fine adapter set, but be advised that it is ONLY an adapter set. Because the title lists the item as an adapter/CONVERTER, that's what I expected to receive. I feel that this listing is misleading when it says "Product Description
Lenmar AC Plug, Converter Set, 5 Piece, International". I suppose if I knew more about what I was purchasing, I could've seen by the picture that this was only an adapter set, BUT I don't know what a A/C converter is supposed to look like since I don't own one yet. I was relying on the words to guide me.

I am returning the adapter set to purchase one that includes a converter, so I cannot fairly rate this product for what it actually is. Since I had no choice, I assigned the adapter set 3 stars. I'm basing the low rating on the fact that the countries of use are not written directly onto the plugs. Who wants to keep the package and take it along on vacation?

Digital camera Review: Not a converter
Summary: 1 Stars

The fact that the product is called a "converter" led me to believe that it was a voltage converter. It is not. This is a deceptive marketing practice on the part of Lenmar. Don't be fooled. You will only get a set of adapters.

Digital camera Review: Not what I expected either
Summary: 3 Stars

As a review posted a few days ago stated, this was actually only an adapter set. I ordered it because it was listed as an adapter/converter set, and since there was very little descriptive information contained in the listing, I was expecting it to include a converter. At least amazon covers return postage...

Digital camera Review: One problem with this for India?
Summary: 3 Stars

My only issue with this set: I see people saying it worked great for them in India, but India requires a plug with 3 prongs - if the ground prong is not present a safety feature will not allow power to the other two prongs. Yet, I do not see the appropriate plug in the set???? I'm leaving for India this week, and looks like I'll have to purchase something else.
