You do not need a plug converter.
You simply buy a new power cord that plugs into the Readed power adapter instead of Americam power cord. The socket on the adapter is standard so there is no problem to buy a power cord. A new power cord is cheaper and smaller to carry
I have made an artificial load in order to make 100% sure the adapter works like it says on the label it does. There have been reports on this forum about adapters that hum slightly during use. There have also been reports that some adapters have tension against ground. I just wanted to test it thoroughly. That is it.
It works great ever since.
