Headed on an overseas trip? One of the most important things to pop in your carry-on bag — after your passport — is a travel adapter.

Since there isn't one universal type of electrical outlet across the world, a travel adapter converts your device into one that can fit a local socket, allowing you to charge a U.S. device anywhere.

But in addition to travel adapters, there are also power converters that convert the voltage of the outlet in a foreign country to work with your device. This is so you can use single-voltage items — such as hair straighteners or electric shavers — without blowing a fuse or even ruining your appliance.

It may all seem like a lot to consider, so we've put together a list of our 8 favorite travel adapters and power converters for your next trip overseas.

The Epicka TA-105 Pro Universal Travel Adapter is a fan favorite, and highly recommended by travel experts.

This all-in-one travel adapter will work in over 200 countries, and has three USB-C ports, two USB-A ports, and an outlet that can fit either a standard U.S. plug or various plugs from countries in the European Union, the U.K., Asia, and elsewhere.

And with 70-watt fast charging, the Epicka Travel Adapter is perfect for a laptop or cell phone, as your devices will come back to life quickly and efficiently.

The Ceptics Universal Travel Adapter works in over 150 countries, and has the capability to charge up to six devices at once. It includes two USB-A ports, three USB-C ports, and one U.S./multi-country outlet. With its all-in-one design, you'll never have to worry about leaving your country-specific adapter at home.

The MOGICS Bagel Universal Power Strip has a very different design than the other adapters on our list. It's circular like a donut or bagel, with a 3-foot long integrated power cable.

With the MOGICS Bagel Power Strip, you can charge up to seven devices at once, which is more than most. And this travel adapter is small, lightweight, and perfect for on-the-go travel throughout the U.S., Europe, and elsewhere.

If you're generally only visiting countries within Europe (including the U.K.), then the Foval European Travel Plus Adapter is a great option.

You'll have access to three standard U.S. outlets, four USB-A ports, and one USB-C port, all at once on a single panel. There's also a 5-foot extension cord, which comes in handy when the wall outlet isn't easily accessible.

And since the Foval European Adapter comes with a U.S. (Type A) adapter, you can also use this at home as a power strip to charge multiple devices at once.

A simpler option for your European travel is the Anker European Travel Plug Adapter. This compact adapter offers two U.S. outlets (one with a ground plug and one without), two USB-C ports, and one USB-A port.

The manufacturer, Anker, specifies that this adapter can charge an iPhone 15 up to 50% in about 45 minutes.

If you're looking for the simplest — and least expensive option — then the Unidapt 4-Pack European Travel Plug Adapter is the choice for you.

At just $6 for a 4-pack, these travel adapters are the smallest you'll find, though they can only charge one device at a time. But you'll be all set with this set during your next European adventure, though note that these adapters won't work in the U.K.

The high-end Satechi GaN Travel Charger will charge your devices faster than most other adapters. That's because its four USB-C ports have a combined output of 145 watts.

And with four international plugs, this charger will work in Europe, Australia, the U.K., and even in the U.S as a USB-C charging hub. Just know that there's no U.S. outlet, if that's a feature you need.

If your American device only runs at 110 volts and can't handle the higher voltage commonly found overseas, you'll need a power converter. This is where the Key Power 230W 220V to 110V Converter comes into play.

This adapter comes with four USB ports and two A/C outlets. That means in addition to running your bathroom appliances such as an electric toothbrush, hair straightener, or electric razor, you can also charge your regular everyday electronics, such as your cell phone, tablet, and computer.

The Key Power Converter works in most countries worldwide, and also includes an extension cord that allows you to plug in and use your items even when you're not close to an outlet.
