I know the japanese power supply is 110 volts and ours is 220 volts or something like that. Is there some sort of converter available so that you could a laptop say ?

Japanese electricity is 100V, 50Hz in the east and 60Hz in the west. You'll need to check the power supply of your laptop. Usually if you look on the adapter it'll say that it supports 100V-240V and 50Hz-60Hz. If this is the case (and it is with most laptops) you will only need a plug adapter.
Otherwise you will need to get a transformer.

My laptop had no problems over there, just needed the plug adapter. As long as your laptop can change the power supply to 100V, it should be grand.
