Hello Everyone,
I have been searching for answers on this particular topic but have yet to come across something definitive. Your help on this could potentially save me a lot of money.
A lot of electronics these days are said to be dual voltage, in that they can be safely operated in various counties (e.g., 110/120V AC in the US and 220/240V AC in most of Asia). As such they come with adapters which look like this in the link. This example is for a Sony TV I believe.

My question is: if these electronics already come with such an adapter, would fluctuating voltages still be a concern? Would I still need an auto voltage regulator (AVR) for such electronics? For example, my Sony TV has the same power adapter. It says input can be anywhere between 100-240V AC. In theory, even if voltage were to fluctuate from 100 to 240V, would that damage my TV? I am thinking of buying an AVR for my TV and other electronics, but if they already come with an adapter like that then I don't want to waste money on one.
Thank you in advance!!
