So I got two chromecasts v2 - an audio and video one - from a colleague who travelled to the USA.

Obviously they came with little USB adapters with USA plugs.

So I'm either looking for a cheap USA --> SA adapter (I'm not interested in multiple plug-types to SA, just a cheap sturdy USA-SA adapter) or a cheapish USB power adapter. Unfortunately my TV / Hifi doesn't provide USB output (old equiptment).

Any suggestions?

This seems TOO cheap: http://www.takealot.com/marco-double-plug-usb-charger-white-gold/PLID40401600
This seems also too cheap but slightly more familiar: http://www.takealot.com/gobii-usb-wall-charger/PLID38315939
This seems fair and probably more reliable to me: http://www.takealot.com/huntkey-d202-powermate-usb-charger/PLID38157742
This seems overkill - surely you must be able to find a cheaper single-use adapter somewhere if a USB charger can cost R23?? http://www.takealot.com/travel-adapter-international-to-sa/PLID34147820
