I'm going to India and Australia on a business trip in a couple of days and plan to carry only a tablet instead of my trustworthy laptop (which got dunked in the tub by my oldest - don't ask). The adapter states the following:

100-240V~0.65A, 50/60Hz Output 12V===2A

Will it be safe to use the adapter in these countries to charge my device, or do I have to buy new ones there? If the latter, what kind? What else should I take along with me? A surge protector?

By the looks of it, the adapter will work as long as you have the "adapter"!

India   
230 V
50 Hz

Type D Socket and Plug

Australia   
230 V
50 Hz

Type I Socket and Plug

According to this chart, both of those countries use 220-240 Volts at 50 Hz. Your adapter says that it does support those voltages and cycles.

However, you will need adapters for the shape of the plug so that your plug will fit in the socket. Most electronics stores carry these fairly cheaply.
