electric plug adapter/voltage converter
Question:
These type of chargers use what is called an "off-line" switcher — they have a regulator circuit which senses voltage and frequency and adjusts an oscilators "pulse duration" inversely with the input voltage — my Rollei battery charger works this way. – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text -> I have a Pentax Optio 430 digital camera. > The battery charger says INPUT: AC 100-240V 50-60 Hz 6W > If I understand this correctly, when using this in Europe (France, Germany, > Netherlands), all I will need is an adapter for the plug, and no voltage > converter is needed because the battery charger will automatically accept > the 220 European voltage. > Am I correct? > (direct email copy of your response is greatly appreciated) > — > Thomas A.

I have a Pentax Optio 430 digital camera. The battery charger says INPUT: AC 100-240V 50-60 Hz 6W If I understand this correctly, when using this in Europe (France, Germany, Netherlands), all I will need is an adapter for the plug, and no voltage converter is needed because the battery charger will automatically accept the 220 European voltage.

Yes. Most laptop chargers, and some mobile phone chargers, also work this way.
