If I understand correctly, and I may not, you should never plug anything built for 110v (American) electrical sockets into an outlet designed for 220v appliances (found in much of Europe and some of South America). You need an adapter, otherwise things might get spicy.

Do you mean a 220V as in a power in Europe? Then,Check your adaptor. It will tell you the input voltage. If it sates that the range of the input voltage in 100V-240V then YES you can plug in your adapter into a 220V outlet.Please note that some people advise that you plug in the adapter into the power before plugging it into the computer.


What happens if a 110 v charger is plugged into a 220 volt source?

After the smoke clears...... the charger won't work. Unless it was rated for 120v-220v. Radio Shack (and others) sell devices to convert 220v to 110v to use your charger, but be sure to get one that uses a "transformer". Here's one rated for 85w (watts) http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2062422

Can you use a 120v dewalt battery charger in Europe with 220v without a voltage converter without damage to the charger or battery?

No, by doubling the input voltage to the charger which is just a transformer you will be doubling the output of the charger. Batteries like to be charged at about a volt and a half above their working voltage.
