Do you need a voltage converter in Micronesia?
✅
No voltage converter needed. The voltage in Micronesia (120V) is the same as what your devices use at home in the United States (120V), so a voltage converter is not needed.
Many chargers (phones, laptops, cameras) are labelled INPUT: 100–240V, 50/60Hz — those work anywhere and only need a plug adapter, never a converter. Always check the label.
