    It won't work (for the same reason your hair straightener didn't). You should be able to get an electric tea kettle for $20 - $25. That is the super basic cheap model. They can obviously be more expensive. Target carries them as do lots of other stores. I'd have to sat that the $25 is a good investment if you drink lots of tea!

    Have a great trip!
