Red face japanese electrical outlets - 06-18-2009, 07:49 AM

so the battery pack for my hp pavillion laptop says this:

100-240V~1.7A(1.7A) 50-60Hz


my question is, will my computer fry up if i stick it into the two pronged(plug?) outlets here in japan...with my three pronged(plug?) converter..or should i go out and get a transformer and play it safe?

i read different opinions on the subject through various sites saying that it's okay for certain laptop batteries because japan's voltage is almost the same as the states, but if anyone has any experience on the matter please tell me! so i can spare my precious laptops life..

much appreciated!
