Yes. But tape the two pieces together. I've left the plug converter in the wall when I pulled out the USB charger.If I need only to recharge iPhone and iPad, do I need just a prong adapter for the round Spanish outlet plugs?
I've heard you can mount the solar panels right on the outside of the rain water collection container as long as it fits under the wind turbine!Might I suggest bringing a solar panel?

Check your iPhone USB adapter to see if it is rated to 240V. If it is, you will not need a converter. However, if it is not then you will need to step down the current to 110V with a converter.
In Pamplona I went to the Apple Store to replace the adapter I had left in the socket in the SJPP hotel. Apple could only offer me a USB charger for 20 Euro. At a nearby department store I found a replacement adapter for 3.50 Euro. Others' experiences may differ.However, it is simpler and probably just as cheap to buy the USB charger in Spain. It will have the right plug.
Amazon.com has several solar powered phone chargers. You can charge while you walk.I've heard you can mount the solar panels right on the outside of the rain water collection container as long as it fits under the wind turbine!
The appears to be the same item, similar price (once you select a mainstream device). There is more information (and a photo that you can zoom in on to see input is 100-240V).Check your iPhone USB adapter to see if it is rated to 240V. If it is, you will not need a converter.

Honestly, I would just a little nervous about using an unbranded charger without a bunch of reviews available from a credible source.
If you do buy a really cheap one, see if a friend has one of these (to test the output). https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00J3JSEG6/?tag=casaivar02-20
I bought one because I have ended up with so many charging blocks I wanted to make sure I was using good ones.
I like the concept, and bought the following two port charger (which failed after about 2 weeks - not recommended by me) - which has 3.9 out of 5 stars based on 364 reviews: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MV6UBIC/?tag=casaivar02-20
