This should be working perfectly.

We have one working in a remote office using 240V.

Hi @charlesle

Welcome to the community!

Yes you can. Just make sure that you use the same DC output of 19V, 3.16A.

Thank you @ElaineM

As an U.S. expat working in India, I was planning to get a co-worker to bring the X8 for me next week. I have an India purchased universal power strip (made by Belkin), which uses a Type D (5A) plug as shown here:

I can plug your typical U.S. Type A plug into it and it works fine for all of my gadgets (MBP, work laptop, etc.)

Can you confirm if things will work properly? I am not sure when the X8 is coming to India, but the reason I'd like to bring one from the U.S. is so I am able to use it in my home when I return to the U.S. without having to hook up a power adapter.
