Can I charge this speaker overseas where the AC is 220 volts, or do I need an additional step-down transformer?

The charger is 110-240v so you only need a pług adapter - no step-down transformer needed

You will need a world Travel adapter for overseas. Try a Radio Shack/Office Max. Have you checked to see if Amazon has travel adapters. they read some reviews.

I'm going to bring my new JBL on stage to Europe. The included adapter has only 120VAC input. What kind of adapter should I buy instead so that the speaker works overseas? Thanks!

This is a late answer - but what you need to know is the power consumption of your amplifier. This will be printed on the back, on the same label that says 220-240v, 50Hz. The power output to the speakers doesn't tell you what you need to know, as different classes of amplifiers have different efficiencies. If the label on the back lists a consumption of circa 100 watts or less, then this step up transformer is fine. If your amplifier has power consumption greater than 100 watts continuous, then you need a bigger step-up transformer.

I live in South Carolina, USA, and my model is 110 volt only for both soundbar and subwoofer. Check with Polk Audio for a 220 volt version or you may be able to use a voltage converter. Gary

yes, it will step down 220V to 110V. However, check your equipment. Often electronic equipment does not need a transformer - it just needs a plug converter - these items are often 110/220.

You will need a transformer for the voltage. We moved here from Europe and are using step-ups for the same purpose. That way our European equipment works here in the USA. I hope that help!

110w Outlet (OK in America) Need a Transformer in my case Australia which uses 220/40w

No, not without additional conversion equipment. 120V 60Hz power is required. I would not recommend using a step down transformer. Better to buy equipment designed for the local electrical supply specification.

YES, positive. You will need a PLUG for the country you're planning to use it . . ,but no transformer is necessary . . .it accepts 110 and 220.But I'm a stranger and can only tell you what my owner's manual says. You can download and read for yourself . . .or call Bose directly and ask them. But repeatedly asking customers the same question is obviously not easing your mind. Sorry . . .

You need to buy a travel adaptor that inputs 220 volt and steps it down 110 volt ,the plugs are different ie round vs flat on the 110volt ,otherwise you will fry the adaptor !

This is only 110V, but you can just buy a step up/ down transformer for it.

I had the same problem here in the Emirates, so I got a step down transformer for 220V to 110V about 20 UK pounds, and it works fine.

Yes. as long as the input side is capable of 220V-250V 50 cycles. Before you buy a step down transformer look at the input rating of your current charging transformer. Most of those made in the last 3-4 years (phones, ipads, laptops) are dual input and will work with 120-240 volts 50-60 cycles input voltages. You may not need to buy a stepdown transformer. But in many cases you will need a plug adapter to fit the European outlets. Most airports will accommodate the standard USA flat 2 prong style. This Tripp Lite will work in most European wall outlets and accommodate USA and European plugs. Yes. as long as the input side is capable of 220V-250V 50 cycles.

No --- One should use a step down transformer from a reliable electrical firm. Mine came from a large electrical house. It has a 30 Amp rating. Will step down 230 to 117. Has multiple outlets.For the more thrifty, find out what the box pulls for amps, then talk to AAA ( the car guys ) and see what they have in the way of travel converters

No, it is only rated for 120V-60Hz. A step-down transformer would be required to use it at 220V. If the 220 volts is 50HZ that is probably not a problem.

Hi. you will need a step down transformer to work this equipment on 220. Otherwise will burn.

Input shown in the back of the subwoofer says 120 V ~ 60 Hz, not extended to 220 V. I have 220 V at home and will use a 110 V transformer allways for my speakers.
