I was wondering if the computer will function properly when connected to european 220 V sockets instead of the 110 V US ones, given that I use an adaptor

Well, I don't see why not :) If the adapter is gonna make the outlet the same as a 110V US socket then you should be good to go. If you're buying from here bear in mind you can always return it if it's a no-go, but I'm sure it's gonna work.

I used a converter with built-in plug adapter. If you just change the plug you still have too much voltage (220) and could fry your laptop.

Yes, no problem; you'll need a plug adaptor, but the power supply will accept 110 to 240v. It's a great thing - well worth it!

I don't know. I would look for the European adapter to be on the safe side.

I have bought in US and use the laptop in Brazil without any adapter (just for reference in Brz we use 120v 220v)... as I am not familiar with Europe standard, I am not sure how its gonna work.

Nope, the european voltage is not compatible -- only with a convertor. I am using it though for more than 2 years and works just fine!

It uses American plugs and works fine. I don't know anything about EU adapters.

Yes, though I haven't tried it myself at that voltage.I say so because I pulled the power plug out of the socket and looked at the label. "Input: 100 - 240 v, 50/60 Hz." The 50/60 Hz part suggests to me that they were trying to be compatible with European power.Hope this helps.Richard S (minor in EE)

The electrical voltage in Europe is not the same as USA.....as you know......I can not remember the correct adapter, so Radio Shack or Best Buys will have the correct adapter.Best Regards

Not sure, this uses a USB to your computer and the 220V is a bit excess for something not quite like this. It is mainly used for major appliamces and I believe that this is too much for this.

first of all make sure you're connecting to 220/240 V , not 110 V. second part of the question: you need to ask this to an electrician, I bought it as a gift for use in Europe, and it works fine there

This power strip will not convert voltage, it will let you to plug in different plug types that are used around the world. Your laptop supply should work with 120 to 220 Volts.

As I understand it, it is only an adapter. Your equipment must be able to adjust to the voltage at the source. My laptop is dual voltage so it worked fine.

Yes, see here: http://www.adaptelec.com/index.php?main_page=document_general_info&products_id=170 However, note that they use 220-240 volts. Laptop power adapters can handle that, but other things might not.

Does this mean that it does not work in Europe. This is the first time an laptop does not work with 220 V and 110 V due to his Accu. Could you please confirm this to me again, because I would use it primarly in Europe.

Hi Mark, the charger says 110 or 240v so with a US to Europe adapter you shouldn't have any problem
