No special power adapter is needed, because each device, is charged by it's own adapter.

However, to establish a wireless connection with a desktop , a laptop must have a wireless USB Wi-Fi adapter. This particular adapter has nothing to do with powering the device. It simply transmits signals to connect with a desktop, another laptop, PDA, cell phone, etc.

Should you connect your PC direct to 220 without a power supply?
No. A PC would needs to have a power supply in order to take a 110 or 220v power input and convert it to the basic 12v power <and other rails> it uses. Now most desktops can and do have the ability to handle 220v power. Consult your manual and make sure you have the little red switch on the back set to 220 unless your PSU is auto-switching. As always, check with your manual and manufacturer before assuming you can handle 220. Hope that helps!

This power supply box may have one of several designs of mains inlet cords. These also comply with the IEC-320 regulation The two popular ones are a clover leaf (type C5 three pole) or a figure eight (type C7 two pole) design.
