So I have one of the new ipod nanos and I'm traveling to the middle east very soon. I bought this power converter and adapter so it plugs into the wall and converts the 220/240v current to 120v similar to what we have in the U.S. It says that it will work for class II electronics. Can someone tell me if this will fry my ipod when I try to charge it??
 
It will work fine. As as you get your 120V AC and not over rate the wattage of the converter (doubt an ipod will, since they dont pull much electricity), you'll be fine. You can also buy a ipod charger while over there too and should work just fine since the ipod just needs 5 volts over USB.
 
Most of apple's chargers work without converters at 240v. Check the text on the brick and see if you can find text reading 120 - 240 V (meaning that it works at either voltage)
