If you plan to use any of your electronics, such as phone chargers, laptops, etc in Ireland, you will need an outlet adapter which is type G (UK plug). It looks like 3 small rectangles in the shape of a triangle. These can be found on Amazon, Best Buy, Staples and more. Of note, hair appliances such as hairdryers are not usually compatible with the outlet voltage of 230v in the UK, unless it has dual voltage features. Check with your specific appliances, or also most hotel and BnB rooms come with hairdryers.
