UNSOLVED
Dual Voltage Monitors
I plan to purchase either the "DELL - UltraSharp 1704FPV 17inch Flat panel" or the "Samsung - SyncMater 710N 17inch LCD LCD" monitor.
A few months from now I will be moving to India. Will these US purchased monitors work in India.
The DELL monitor says it will work with 110-240 volts and 50-60Hz so lloks like it should. Do I need different power cables?
The Samsung monitor says it has internal power supply. What does this mean. Will it too work on dual voltage (US and India)?
Thanks.

You can simply buy a computer power cord when you get to India as the computer side is all standardized. I'd shy away from 'adapter' cables as they're just temporary solutions and can be a fire hazard in some cases. They're not meant for long term use.BigBrother

940Fn
540B

Abhi05,
You will need an adapter for the plug to use your Dell 1704FPV in India. As for the Samsung, what are the input voltages that are listed in the specs for this monitor?
