| Moving to UK- taking laptop with me, do I need to get a power converter or is a basic outlet adapter enough? I live in the US, have a Dell XPS M1210. Thanks! Laptops & Notebooks - 2 Answers People's Answers, Critics, Comments, Opinions : Answer 1 : UK sockets are 3-pin and uses 50 Hz. You must have a converter for the 50Hz converter and a suitable pin adapter (I think in America you use a 2-pin plug). You could contact Dell and find out if you need a converter, but I'd bring it just in case. Answer 2 : Yes, you'll need a power converter. I lived in England for 3 years and had to do this for my US Electronics that I brought with me. A good Travel Store will have this available. Bon Voyage! |
