I'm looking for the smallest plug point extender

Hi all, specifically for hotels in EU & Asia, where many hotels only provide one plug point, I am looking at purchasing the absolutely smallest available plug point extender.

I looked around for options, in terms of compact size and based on past threads, it seems they are
a) Monster outlets to go
b) Allcel adapter
c) Other options are mentioned in this wirecutter article

However, from what I understand, none of these adapt down 220V to 110V.

If that is correct, why not just buy this sort of product? Its a 3 outlet GE grounded adapter and is smaller than all of the above.

All my devices are rated at 110-220, so if I use my kikkerland pin adaptor with this GE product, I get 3 outlets. I plan to stick my MBP adaptor in one (which is rated 110-220), my Skiva Quadfire in the other (which is also rated 110-220) and charge my Edimax, iPad mini and iPhone via the Skiva

Is there a problem with this setup? or will the GE product itself fry because its inserted in a 220V system?

thanks
