Though if it's for your laptop, you should've be able to get away with that as I thought most laptops have a variable transformer that handles most 110-220V situations.

But apparently not in your case so just get the specs of what your device uses and head into an electronics store or the airport if you have time.
yeah he got a plug adapter for sure

bout the power needed, depends on what youre gonna connect

there are devices like a bulblight that take 100Watt but electric tools like a grinder can take up to 5 times as much as what it says on the device.

Just tell us what youre gonna connect and I can tell you what you need - quite frankly 99% of the times youll buy a new device on UK voltage, a converter for say a blender could easily be 5 times as expensive as the blender itself.
