My wife and daughter are going to Thailand for a missions trip and am curious what I need to get in order to convert their electricity so they can use a battery charger?
Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

Well Jim, it's been 14 years since I've been to Thailand (YWAM outreach, was there for 2 months) but I'm sure they are on 220v power.

If it's a battery charger your looking for, take a look at Maha/Powerex Batteries I use these for work and they really outlast any rechargable that I've used to date.

They make an international charge which is good for both 110v and 220v so that may be a help.

I loved Thailand. To what area are they going? Once you get out of Bankok the country is truly beautiful and the people are very very friendly.

Check out this section on the Maha website for the specific charger.

International charger than you'll have to get the plug conversion kit (look under accesories)Rod True39097.9891203704

Rod, Thanks for the link. This is what I'm looking for (I think).
They are going to Chiamg Mai. It's in support of a very large field conference of workers in the region. About 400 I believe.

No problem Jim.

So they are heading North, I'm sure they will have a time that they will not soon forget.
