Planning for an 18 night break in Bulgaria in June, and thinking about things to pack.....
Watch, needs charger
Phone needs charger
Tablet (or two) needs charger
Ear plugs need charger
Body camera needs charger
Camera needs charger
And as I will be there during the Euro's I will be bringing my fire stick as I imagine that I will want to lie up in the room for a game or two after a tough morning and early afternoon sunbathing
Is there others who also bring as much technology?

What do you need a body camera for
 
Phone only here.

In November last year I only took my two prong charger to Cyprus and they use our plugs. Always check!

I'm looking at buying an apartment there in the next year or two, so will be using the bodycamera to take videos of the complexes I'm looking at, and the supermarket, probably one of old Nessebar as well and the seafront of an evening.
It is small (about the size of a cigarette lighter) and can clip on to the daysack or shirt pocket

Surely you just get one charger with a continental plug, and 4/5 in one USB/Lightning adapter?
 
This question reminds me of my very recent discovery of something that had completely passed me by. When I was young and our house was rewired from Wylex round pin plugs to the normal three pin ones we have now, I just assumed that we were moving from an old national standard to the new one like everyone else in the country had or would be getting. It was only recently I learnt that Wylex plugs were nowhere close to being a standard and were only used in small bits of the country; Manchester, unsurprisingly given the Wythenshawe factory, being one of them.

This blew my mind a bit and my immediate thought was I have no recollection of having to take adaptors to the other parts of the country when we went on holidays etc. Then I remembered that in those days no bugger took electronic devices on holiday with them other than maybe your battery operated transistor radio.

So in answer to your question normally it would be half of a Currys superstore but this year I'm thinking of just taking my trunks, a bucket and spade and a couple of sherbet dib dabs because life was simpler when I only had those essentials to worry about.
