you do what we did when in Europe. You bye an adapter at raidio shack. they
sell them and they work well. The only thing that you should no is some
places over there have there plugs recessed so you need an extension to the
prongs. But there cheep.

So Jonathan, if we ever decide to travel to Europe or something and we
have the old-style adapters, would we just contact Humanware to find out
about purchasing these two-part adapters? I've heard people talk about
them, but even when I got my transplant, I was sent the same kind of
adapter I had for my classic.

Hi Olusegun, the issue isn't that the BrailleNote needs a voltage
converter built into it. The issue is the power supply we include with
the
device. The North American power supply was, for some time, not dual
voltage. The one shipped in the rest of the world will handle both 120
and
240 volts, I use it all the time all over the world. The newer power
supplies that have two pieces are also dual voltage, so all you need is a
simple power plug adaptor to fit over the end.

Re: [Braillenote] International Travel With A BrailleNote Mpower
A better way to deal with different electrical voltages is to do what
laptops/notebooks do well -- they have built-in automatic converters.
Desktop PC's have a switch that changes the voltage from 110V to 220V and
all you do is just push a small button in the appropriate direction. I
always wonder why notetakers sold in the U.S. don't always come as dual
voltage especially when you factor in the $6-thousand-plus one pays for
one.
Sincerely,
Olusegun
