Much hassle is easily avoided by having in your travel kit:

4-way socket strip rewired on a power cord with IEC320 C13/C14 connectors
in the middle.

Plug-in mains tester, especially for countries with symmetrical plugs
and/or cavalier attitude to electrical safety.

When you land in some country (Switzerland for example) with xenophobic
plugs, you find the nearest computer shop and buy a local C13 mains lead.
Good for 10A total load.
