HI, what sort of converter should I buy that will allow me to plug in my electronics while I'm in Vietnam?

the voltage in Vietnam is 220 V 50 HZ , you have to get a converter for all of your devices

Most of your electronics will run without much issue other than the different plugs used here. This can be fixed by obtaining plug adaptors. However, not all will run okay.
You need to check your power supplies and equipment to make sure it can handle 220 VAC. Some can handle only 110 VAC, but will still plug into sockets here. Those become expensive paper weights in a split second after being plugged in. If you really need to use such equipment here, youcan get 220 VAC - 110 VAC transformers either here in Vietnam or where you're traveling from.
Good luck in your travels...

It will help if you tell us what country you are from. What type of plug do you use and what voltage and frequency?
Yahoo! Answers is read all over the world you know.
But thanks for the two points
