Moving to canada, AC adaptator

Hello,

I bought in 2020 an Optimus Series laptop in France. I am moving to Canada and I am wondering if I should buy a new AC adaptor or if keep my old one?

Thank you in advance.

Hi there, this forum is for PC Specialist purchases only. You want a general tech forum like Tom’s Hardware.

I think this is a PCSpecialist Optimus laptop, if so if you go into your main PCS account to the upgrades section, they may well stock chargers for different countries.

I would keep the old one anyway As a spare

But France is 220v and Canada is 110v

You may just need a new lead to go from the wall socket to the charger, my laptop supply has input voltage 100-240 volt, I'd give PCS a call and see what they say

That’s true, a lot of chargers have switchable supplies now, always forget that!
