Yes if this UNIT has the specified mains voltage set for 240 volts then it must work in Australia.
If you have to bring up the voltage from a 120 volt supply then USE a STEP-UP transformer with a conversion factor of 120 volts in the primary to a 240 volt in the secondary.

Is a Rowenta DW 5080 240 volt available for Australia

all electrical equipment imported into Australia have to conform to Australian electrical regulations and that includes insulation properties ,voltage
Basically if it is not on the market then it is not 240 volts so if you are considering buying overseas then it is not advisable as it will be the wrong voltage and will fall short in meeting the strict regulations for electrical equipment

Power Plug Adapter - Converter - 110V - max. 1550W US/Japanese to Australia

You need a stepdown transformer from 240 volts to 110 volts AC.
Make sure you get one that has the required wattage you require.
Jaycar has a 1000W 240 - 115V Cat. No. MF-1086 for $360.00
**** Smith has a 1000W 240 - 115V Cat. No M1154 for $246.00
If you require a higher wattage, try an electrical wholesaler.

Activem1 usb 320 speakers. Live in Australia. Right speaker does not have voltage select switch. Only supplied with american power cord. Can I plug an Australian power cord straight into 240 volt...

No you cannot plug it directly into 240 volts, you will damage your speakers.

You need to get a step down transformer 240 volts down to 115 volts. These are available from Jaycar. Make sure you select a unit with a wattage equal to or greater to the wattage rquirements of the speaker system otherwise you will overload the transformer and it will fail.

Can this computer be used in Australia without being damaged?

Most laptop can be used in any country.
Check the laptop's power adapter mains input voltage, it is on a label on the bottom of the adapter.
If the input voltage is 100 to 240 volts then it will work in Australia, you may need an mains adapter to connect to Australian 3 pin mains power point or purchase the mains cable that fits the Australian 3 pin mains power point.

I bought an AOC 2036s monitor in the usa, came back to australia to connect it to my laptop as a second screen. yet it wont seem to work, i keep getting no signal. the box saids compatible with XP, yet...

USA mains equipment operate on 110 volts. Unless the AOC monitor can operate on multi voltages ie 110 to 240 volts, when you connect 110 voltage equipment into 240 volts mains in Australia you most likely will damage the AOC monitor.
To operate equipment that has been designed for 110 volts, you need to purchase a step down transformer from 240 to 110 volts that has suitable wattage rating for the AOC monitor.
