Please log in for more thread options For any laptop that I've seen, Dell included, they are all 110-220
anyway. You will need a different cord, or an adapter for the plug, but
the laptop will probably work on 220. HOWEVER, CHECK THE LABEL ON THE
POWER SUPPLY TO BE SURE.
For OTHER devices, converters of several kind exist, but there are a lot
of issues, different kinds of converters, and you really need to have
some idea how electricity and these converters work to get one that is
both appropriate and safe.
