An AC-to-DC electrical adapter including a body having a first surface and a second surface, and a pair of electrically conductive blades extending outwardly from the first surface and adapted for inserting into corresponding slots of an alternating current (AC) electrical receptacle. Also comprising the invention is an AC receptacle built into the electrical adapter and accessible at said second surface. Included in the invention is a pair of electrical wires extending from the body of the electrical adapter for conducting DC current, which can be connected to a plurality of plugs, or a plurality of receptacles built into the adapter body for conducting DC current. An AC-to-DC converter is positioned within the body and coupled between the pair of conductive blades and the built-in AC receptacle, wherein when the pair of electrically conductive blades are inserted into corresponding slots of an AC electrical receptacle and the AC-to-DC converter receives an AC electrical voltage from the AC house current receptacle, the AC-to-DC converter is configured to produce at least one DC electrical voltage and to provide at least one DC electrical voltage to the DC electrical wire pair or to the DC receptacles, and the built-in AC receptacle is energized.
