Do You Need a Voltage Converter?
A voltage converter is only necessary if your device’s voltage differs from the country you’re traveling to. In León, the voltage matches the U.S., so you won’t need one.
Before plugging in your devices abroad, always confirm the power rating on the label. If it lists “100-240V, 50/60 Hz”, your device is designed for worldwide use and won’t require a converter. Many modern gadgets, including laptops, tablets, and cameras, are built this way.
