Answer 1 :
youll need the plug converter. browse online, sometimes places like radio shack will carry converters, though they may not have the one you need.
Answer 2 :
Yes you need an adaptor and you should be able to buy it at a Dick Smith Electronics once you get over here.(Dick Smith Electronics is everywhere so you should be able to find one)
Answer 3 :
First of all, make sure your charger can support 110-240V. I'm not sure the voltage in Australia (USA is using 110V), but as long as your charger can support 110-240V you're safe. Second of all, you should get an adapter, check which plug Australia is using and you can go to Radioshack or other electronic store to get an adaptor
Answer 4 :
Travel converters are used for SMALL low draw appliances that have no heavy duty electric motors in them. Primarily used for small items such as CD players, battery chargers, hair dryers, heating irons, curling irons, ... Step Down models are for using American items Overseas in Europe/Asia/Africa, etc... Step Up models are for using Overseas items in the USA/Canada/Mexico
