France and Italy, perhaps England....

What will I need to get the battery charger to work?

(it is a 2 prong USA charger for our 120v AC)

All you will need is an adapter for the plug - the charger can take 240V. Looking at it right now at work :)

Europe is not a country - it's one of them continent thingamagigs. As grimes said England is 240V. Some countries are 220. Your charger will work on any of the voltages. You just need to get a set of international adapters so that the US 2 flat prong connector will plug into the outlets in the countries you're visiting. Not the ones with the transformers in them - just the electric shaver type.
