Run it up in a plastic bag and if the magic smoke comes out you
squeeze the bag and push it back in.

Or you could attatch it to a variable power supply and slowly wind up
the volts while watching the current.  If the current starts to rise
then back off quick if it stays much the same then its probably got an
internal voltage regulator.

If all else fails read the instructions  the techy bit at teh back may
give an allowable voltage range
