American power outlet in Germany?
I know germany has their power output at like 240 volts but American made electronics only go up to 100 something, but what if there is an American power outlet put into my wall here in Germany? Would that have 220 or 100 something like American ones. Can't find the answer anywhere please help if you know!

It depends on how it's wired. You can connect a power transformer to convert the 240 volts to American 110/120. However, if you just connect an American outlet to the same wires that go to a German outlet it would still be 240. If you didn't connect any wires, there'd be no electricity there whatsoever.
