heading to EZE tomorrow and need to know if I can bring my US appliances with me. Is a converter or adapter required ?

Was looking forward to "setting it and forgetting it" with my Ron Popeil Showtime Rotisserie while on vacation.

Not exactly AA related, and certainly easy to find with a quick Google search, but here (http://users.pandora.be/worldstandards/electricity.htm#plugs_c) is what you need to know.

Argentina is 220V. The current will depend on the load you supply. :)

You will need a 220 to 110V transformer. Also, the plugs are somewhat different.... if you are in a full service hotel, they will usually lend you the required adapters.
