Why
Use a plug adapter only after confirming that your actual input rating covers the local voltage and frequency. Match your real plug and preserve any required grounding. An adapter does not change voltage. Electric toothbrush charging bases are almost always dual-voltage (100–240V). A plug adapter is enough; the inductive base draws very little power.
Greece runs 230V / 50Hz. Greece runs 230V at 50Hz with Type C/F sockets. Dual-voltage devices need only a plug adapter.
