South Africa if I remember has its own type of plugs. Possibly two - I forget? In Zimbabwe you get both the South Africa type and also can get one of the two British types. "Universal" type sockets can also sometimes be found in bathrooms for shavers etc and take American, Australian and ??? 2 plug type connections.

I remember one hotel had dual South African and American sockets.

I usually carry several types. Just in case.

I believe you are correct on the adapters---you made me laugh as I read this--my wife and I were staying in a smaller motel in Austria some time ago--she plugged in her "American Style Hair Blower"--shut the entire motel down including the restaurant...they were NOT impressed..
