Reply to comment by sir_maurice in Could I take the European plug end, cut it off the cord, and wire an American plug end to a light bulb on a wire? by Randomhero360

I’ve traveled enough to know that you often can find adapters between American plugs and European/Chinese plugs. A LOT of electronics accept anything 50-60hz 108-240VAC and convert to 5VDC or whatever. A random light may or may not. I probably wouldn’t just plug it in a try, id check if it says what kind of power it accepts.

The greatest things about modern power supplies for things like laptop is they don't care about the socket. Plug into 120 whatever. They make it work.
