Nexus 7 Travel Adapter or just Connector

[bbray6744]

Hey guys, this is more of a general electronics question.

I'm going to europe for a year and so I picked up a nexus 7. Reading the manual I see that the input range for the adapter is 100-240V. That makes me think that all I need is just a conducting connector that will fit the outlet to put on the existing wall charger and that the device won't care what voltage it gets as long as it's in that range. Is this correct or do I need some kind of transformer or special adapter?

If it is just a conducting connector then that would mean that my laptop should be the same as long as it has the 100-240 input range, right?

Thanks

You got it.

The USB wall plug is a transformer that converts the 110/240 AC voltage to the proper DC voltage. Same thing with your laptop power brick. You'll be fine as long as the device says it supports 240v. All you will need is an adaptor like http://www.amazon.com/All---One-Tra...ag=hawk-future-20&ascsubtag=UUacUvbUpU2018238
