Do I need any equipment for charging US electronic devices in Israel?

This summer, I will be going with a tour group for two weeks around Israel. I live in the U.S. Will I need any special equipment for plugging in devices?

(I found online that Israel uses H-type plugs and America uses A-type, but is this true also in tourist hotels?)

Best Answer

Most electronic devices can us 110-240 Volts, which covers most of the world, including Israel. Check the label.

Though Israel uses the weird type H, a European 2-pin plug (type C) easily plugs into an Israeli socket. An adapter (type A to type C) is easy to find, in the USA, Europe and Israel.
