Using 240v kit in Canada

[ChrisMClark]

It's a way away yet I know, but around July time I'll be heading to Canada on tour for 4 weeks and I'll be taking my camera with me. The problem is of course that Canada operate on a 110v system so I'm starting to think about how I'm going to be powering my gear, that gear being the charging pod for my camera battery, a battery charger for my AAs (flash,meter etc) and of course my laptop.
My cam's battery pod states it's voltage as being AC100v-240v 50-60hz, so all I'd need (I think) is the correct mains cable (is that correct?).

But for my AA charger and laptop power, I'll be needing an inverter. Can anybody, maybe someone who's holidayed in Canada or the US recomend me one that'd be sufficient for this? Or maybe suggest a different option?

You can buy a adaptor (travel plug) for the battery charger as these are cheap. Double check your laptop power supply, it should allow 100-100V 60Hz if so use the travel plug again.

For the AA charger just buy a new one when you are there, they cost pence mate.

most of your kit will have switching power supplies that will be ok, all the details will be printed on them somewhere.

I only take adaptors, in my experience all the kit nowadays works from 120-240v with no problem.
