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. A power bank's wall charger is dual-voltage (100–240V) — a plug adapter is all you need. Note airline rules: power banks fly in carry-on only, usually under 100Wh (~27,000mAh).

Czechia runs 230⁠V / 50⁠Hz. Czechia (Czech Republic) runs 230V at 50Hz with Type E sockets that also accept the Europlug (Type C). A standard Europe adapter covers it.
