    Just a wall plug adapter. That's it. You may find one in the US before leaving. Or one in an electronic store there that accepts US based plugs.
    Otherwise your laptop is ready to get 100V-240V directly with the power adaptor.

    Hope this helps

    i wouldn't bother with them they dont take returns. all sales are final for their clearance. i mean ever when the store is closing they still have to screw their customers.
