A voltage converter will ensure a safe input voltage level for your devices in Jamaica. You can find voltage converters at Amazon. Because you also need a power plug adapter, you might want a combined plug adapter/voltage converter.

A suitable voltage converter can sometimes be hard to find. Some suggest that it is possible to cautiously use your electric devices in Jamaica without a converter. While they most likely won't be damaged, they may not function optimally. A low voltage can lead to overheating and a reduced lifespan. If you don't want to take any chances, use a voltage converter in Jamaica.

To be sure, check the label on your devices. Some devices never need a converter. If the label states 'INPUT: 100-240V, 50/60 Hz' the device can be used in every country in the world. This is common for devices with chargers like tablets/laptops, photo cameras, cell phones, toothbrushes, etc. For these devices you will only need a power plug adapter.
