Can I Use My Power Bank in Canada?
You're good — plug right in.
Your device's voltage range matches this country, and the plug fits. You can use it directly — no adapter or converter needed. As a final check, confirm the voltage range printed on the device label.
The short answer
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).
Canada runs 120V at 60Hz. Identical to the US: 120V at 60Hz, Type A/B sockets. US travelers need nothing; a US device plugs straight in.
