Can I use any american appliances/electronics in Europe with just a converter?

Can I use any american appliances/electronics in Europe with just a converter?
I am traveling to Europe and the Czech Republic. Will I be able to plug any american appliance/electronic in through a simple converter and use it? Or is there something else I would need to avoid "blowing up" my american appliances/electronics? In general, I would be plugging in hair appliances or a laptop or cell phone charger. If you have any recommendations on what converter etc. to purchase, I would appreciate the suggestions. Thanks!

Answer 1 :
Most modern electronics like laptops, cell phone chargers, ipod chargers, etc. will work with both US and European voltages. Look at the power supply label. It will say something like 100 - 240 Vac 50/60 Hz. In this case, all you need is a plug adapter here. You do not need a voltage converter for these devices. Some products, like Sony camera chargers, specifically tell you not to use a voltage converter. For some of the hair appliances, you may need a voltage converter. You'll need to check the product information to tell whether what you have is dual voltage or not. I've been using US electronics here in Europe for the past ten years and have never needed a voltage converter - laptops, cell phone charger, and camera chargers, but I have no hair appliances here.

Dual Voltage Laptop from US taking to Europe-Questions?

Dual Voltage Laptop from US taking to Europe-Questions?
Okay. So my laptop (Asus eee pc) is dual voltage. I have the US to European converter plug. My question is do I need a surge protector to put between the two of them? So it would be: Laptop Cord>Surge Protector>Conversion Plug>Wall or do I skip the surge protector and just do Laptop Cord>Conversion Plug>Wall Is the surge protector needed? Then, I also have a dual voltage cannon camera battery charger. Will that be fine plugging into the converter plug then into the wall? Thank you!! Any advice is extremely appreciated-I leave Saturday!

Answer 1 :
for the most part, a surge protector on a laptop 'power brick' is a little useless as the adapter and the battery essentially protect the laptop from surges... if htese are dula power, you shouldn't need the converter plug or if you do be sure what you're using...
Answer 2 :
Laptop Cord>Conversion Plug> !! surge protector !! > Wall Needs to go in that order or else its pointless, the surge protector wouldn't actually be preventing a surge otherwise. And same goes for the camera: Camera >Conversion Plug> !! surge protector !! > Wall
