powersupply voltage issue

[zoran]

Recently i purchased a mac mini from USA. The power supply sais 100-120v. Problem is that i want to use it in Europe where the voltage is 220. Most -if not all- Apple power supplies have voltage indications for both European and American usage (100-240v) why does mine have only 100-120v indication.
Can someone tell me what his has?
You think i might burn it if i connect it to 220v here?

Get a power block convertor.

They are about half the size of a house brick and will transform 220V to 110V.

I would not risk plugging directly into the wall without a convertor.

Appears to be a labeling error on Apple's part. See the review page for the power adapter on Apple's US store: http://store.apple.com/us/reviews/MA407LL/A

Confirm that the part number matches that and you should be OK. You may also want to confirm with Apple via email. The adapter is advertised as 110-240V 50/60Hz on their site.

Part number should be printed on the supply. You are looking for MA407LL/A
