So I'm relocating to the mainland EU in about a month, and in a couple of weeks I have the pre-move survey where the movers come and look at everything I want to move. I have some electronics related questions that I'm hoping people here would know.
1) PC's. I seems like all modern PSU's can take whatever voltage/freq you want, at least as far as the US/UK/EU ones are concerned. Can anyone verify this? The pc's I'm taking are all fairly modern.
2) Monitors. I checked a few of mine and they all said 120-220, 50/60 hz. So I assume I just need the two pronged EU cable and I'm good.
3) TV. I would like to bring over my newish LG 55". It also said it would be good with the power, what I'm curious about is actually watching TV. I use an HTPC hooked up to it and can always get a TV tuner for the pc if I need to. I'd like to be able to watch OTA digital channels, will that be an issue?
4) Wii-u. I see 120-220v AC adapters for sale on amazon, so I assume I just need to get one of those and it should work? I'm fairly sure the software is regionally restricted, so I'll only be able to play US purchased games, but thats not an issue.
5) Anything else I should worry about? Any other advice for making the plunge?
I'm currently in the UK for the next couple of weeks so I won't be able to check the stuff at home, it just occurred to me that my time was running out so I better start asking.
Thanks.
