Question... should I assume that the electricity current is the same as US? Or do we need converters?

It does save time and brain cells, especially if you travel alot.

I was just nitrox certified about a month ago and would love to get in a dive or twoI'm probably going to dive nitrox, its what I've been diving everytime. If you push your NDL on air and your NDL on nitrox it's the same. I don't have a table on me but what I'm trying to say is... if you dive until no deco limit on air say 30 min and you dive until no deco limit on nitrox (same depth) say 45 min you are still loaded the same and your SI will have to be the same. Guided dives however are suited to air users so unless you stay about 15' down from everyone else your going to end up with less n2 anyways. If I was on a budget to save some $$ I would probably dive air, air, nitrox just to feel better after the 3rd dive, (if nitrox helps you feel better).
As for your question in working in a nitrox tank for say 4 dives I would probably do the same air, air, nitrox, nitrox. The reason, after the 2nd dive is usually a bit of a SI while you eat and relax in the sun. Then the 3rd dive, use nitrox, dive as if it were air, keep that pressure group down so you can have a quick turn around. Of course you must remember to be vigilant and remember to change your gas mix on your dive computer, unless you are really good with table magic.
Of course I have less dives then you and could be just making this all up.
