    Anyone knows how to get power cord for D820 that fits European power outlets from dell.com? I've been looking all over the website without success. (There is an international set, however it's not for Latitude D series :( ).

    Thanks for any help.

    just put a plug converter at the end of the current power cord that you have. The adaptor will step down the voltage automatically.
