Would you plug this in?

I did. What you're looking at is my Flip video camera, plugged into the USB-to-outlet converter, plugged into a surge protector, plugged into an American-to-British outlet converter. There was a pop, a spark, and a small amount of smoke (like a small fire cracker). The surge protector looked a little burnt, but my Flip still works!

    I would have done the same! I think it's the current draw from the USB-to-outlet converter which burned it up. You guys are hilarious.

    Following your journey all the way here in Canada!
    Be safe!
