1213407	2011-06-30 00:04:00	They do 110V not 230V and also have a different plug.	mikebartnz (21)
1213408	2011-06-30 00:10:00	Yes, that's why I'm asking. It must be possible. The AC DC Adapter its supplied with says input 100-240V 50-60Hz Can I just get an adapter plug for it?	EFFIGY (12530)
1213409	2011-06-30 00:13:00	Why not get a voltage converter like this one? www.voltageconverters.com	Snorkbox (15764)
1213410	2011-06-30 00:24:00	just get a new cable. if it's 100-240 volts it'll be auto switching. edit - or just an adapter for the end of it. but a butterfly cable might be easy enough. ie incase you forget or lose the adapter.	8ftmetalhaed (14526)
1213411	2011-06-30 00:25:00	Looks good, what size do you think I'd need?	EFFIGY (12530)
1213412	2011-06-30 00:26:00	The AC DC Adapter its supplied with says input 100-240V 50-60Hz Can I just get an adapter plug for it?YES! It IS as simple as that. Buy it here before you leave though.	Scubadoo (16151)
1213413	2011-06-30 00:26:00	above 2x. it's auto switching. me bought 2 laptops from usa and a battery charger and a DSLR from japan. get new cable or just a traveler adaptor might be cheaper for a short trip.	Nomad (952)
1213414	2011-06-30 00:27:00	Why not get a voltage converter like this one? www.voltageconverters.com You don't need it. All laptop power adapters work with 100-240v.	Cato (6936)
