Default Voltage Converter Mexico

We are going Mexico on Sunday for our honeymoon but my other half was told today that her hair straighteners and other things like camera's wont charge because we need to get a Voltage Converter

Anyone know where i can go buy one from?? I went into Currys today but couldnt find anything


Thanks Brian

You technically don't need one, as Mexico is 110v.. So straighteners and hairdryers will still work, just at half power....

You can get them, airport shop will have loads. Don't get a cheapy. Make sure it's a decent quality.


Infact, here's some on this site!
