I hope we get to see some of those pictures.

What sort of laptop is it? Most laptop chargers are universal voltage these days, (110-240V, 50-60Hz) so it shouldn't really be a problem. Others have a switch but will still work in quite a large range (100-130V or 200-250V). As Storm says, the frequency is not an issue.
And if that's the only function you are going to use it for you can probably get away with just using it on battery.
Sorry, but that's just not true. Lower input voltages than designed on electric motors cause them to spin more slowly. The consequence is a smaller "back emf" which results in a higher current. A higher current causes them to run hotter and burn out.Originally Posted by Storm
In any case, UK voltage was specified as 240Vą6% which is 225.6V to 254.4V. The continental Europe specification was 220Vą6% which is 206.8V to 233.2V. Power generation is still to these standards.
To combine these a new 230V standard for appliances was announced. Devices operating to this standard are required to operate at 230Vą11% which is 204.7V to 255.3V, which encompasses both generating ranges.
If the power drill failed after 3 hours it was not because of a difference in standards.
The laptop is a HP zv5000z series. I think I can make it on the battery, but just in case I wanted to make sure I had a chance to charge it without frying it.
Yeah, I definatly upload pictures. I hope I'll be able to start doing a foward loop. That's my goal! Wooo! Yeah!
I miss the days of random nut '03
Click for more activation options, then activate by telephone. Run the keygen.if I call them, aren't they going to get me? (you know, down there)
