Some of your plugs fit Botswana's sockets directly. Grounded or chunkier ones need help.

What to pack

Plugbert recommends

Type D (Indian 3-pin) adapter

Some plugs from South Africa fit the Type D and G sockets in Botswana and some don't, so pack an adapter. A Type D (Indian 3-pin) adapter fits 1 of the 2 listed socket families there. Socket variants can differ; check the actual outlet and adapter rating.

Tip: a "universal" travel adapter may be useful for several destinations. Check its wall-side plugs, grounding and power limits against your trip.
