Most places that carry electronic equipment also sell conversion kits for foreign electrical systems. I think Radio Shack has one that works world-wide.....

My D200 battery charger is marked 100-250 volts, 50-60 cycles. If yours is marked the same you may need to check the coard. nikon advises one rated to a european spec. I have had mine all over the world. with no fires yet. It was purchased in Japan. 100 volts 50 cycles I think. The Nikon web site has the exact info you are looking for also in the paperwork with the charger.

I too will be Peru this may!! And was in Torre de Paine for it's last big fire about two years ago.
