Probably with an adapter - but check the rating If the power rating says 100-240 VAC and 50-60 HZ you are good with just a physical adapter. This info is normal found on a label on the back that usually shows the various tested/certified labels too. Most electronic today are rated for international ranges of power systems.

Now even if by some chance your device is not rated for the higher international power, you can still power it with a converter device. Note a converter changes the power input to match yours but the physical adapter only changes the physical wiring and shape of the plug (the input power does not get "converted"). I was fortunate enough to live in Ireland for a few months back in 89.My kids blew-up two boom boxes (remember those - before MP3) by just plugging in with an adapter but no converter.

But today, like I said the devices are better design for international use. Every laptop I have seen comes rated for the larger international power range..

You can, as long as you mtach the voltage - Ireland (Eire) is a 230V, 50 Hz system. It uses the type G Rectangular blade plug. If your device is american (ie: 120 V, 60Hz with Type A Flat blade attachment plug or Type B Flat blades with round grounding pin), you'll need a voltage and frequency converter before plugging in the charger.

Yes, but you need a world adapter Without a world adapter, the plug won't fit in Ireland, and if it fits, you WILL blow your player up. With the world adapter, you can safely charge any equipment around the world.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
