I'm living in asia where the power supply is 220/230 volt... does the 1520 works with this voltage ?? Or only US 115/120 volt ??

If you purchase from a source in an area with 220 it should come wired for it, otherwise, you will need a transformer.

The literature supplied with the Chef's Choice 1520 is not descriptive in this regard. I called their customer service number (800-342-3255) and was advised that the 1520 is designed for US standard voltage only, 115/120. They further stated that their product is sold in some countries where 220/230 volt is the norm. They suggest look for local retailers/distributers to find a comparable product.

Hey, I'm an Australian customer, I had to buy an adaptor for the power plug plug to have it operate, but it runs absolutely fine on AC240v 50hz, the stock product has an American plug that supports 110v, the plug in transformer (power supply is, 100-240v, 2A, 50-60hz) so it is compatable with Australian specs, Great product though :D

Depends on what part of Asia. Some parts have 220 volts which will fry that adapter. Other areas have slightly less than here and usually enough to drive a hairdryer, but it may not operate that device as powerfully as you want. Check the outlets with a voltmeter or ask the people there, before you plug in anything!

The product specification says "Automatic Worldwide Voltage". I have bought this one (Norelco 7140) for my father in China. I personally have used a similar Norelco in Shanghai - no problem for the 200V and plugs there.

The power adapter says the input is 120V. Does not say anything about 220V.

The power supply is indeed 100-240V and should be usable worldwide, however the unit I purchased came with only a grounded 3-prong plug for use in the US and would require an adapter for overseas.Mine doesn't run hot at all even under steady use.Hope this helps!

Works great with the common adapter in Germany and the UK but I'm not familiar with the Asia 200 watt adapter. It runs on the standard 110 circuit here (common for every household) in the USA. If what you are referring to is a 1 UP TO 200 watt max power adapter it should work if you don't have a plug in problem. Don't get voltage mixed up with wattage or there could be a serious safety problem.

The one I have appears to only accept AC 120V 50/60Hz. I am guessing that there is a non-US model that accepts different power input.

It works well with my 1520 so it might work with the 1521. You can call Dell of course but if Dell did not make major changes it sees it would work. Sorry I could not give you a clean yes or no. It works well with the 1520. Have a good holiday tomorrow. 1Spe 2013 1710

I believe it will work with a 1521. I am not an expert but many things that I have seen have indicated that they use the same battery. Best, Tyler

I have this unit and I live in the Philippines. We're using 220 volts here. It works perfectly.

I think they sell it in 115V and 230V with varying plugs for different regions. I would recommend checking out their website.

Hi Ana... I have been using this machine for a few months now in India and it works well on the voltage that you mentioned.

Because it has an adaptor on the plug it probably is. Yes, I see a small check box on the back of the manual for 230/50Hz. Why would they send me a 230V machine in California? I definitely want a 120V machine replacement. By the way, it didn't work using the adaptor either.

Input: 120V ~60Hz 150 mA Output: 4.2V ---600mAThus I believe if you put it on 220V it would most likely fry it :/

Can you confirm the 110 v and 220 v changeable switch on the back of power supply connection unit. Cause I some time to take to Nepal where there is only 220v.

Hi Xiang,First of all, I do not know much about electronics, but would like to answer what I know.The voltage of my machine is 120v which is allowed to use in my country. You need to use an AC adapter to convert the voltage if it is not allowed but most important is to consult a licensed electrician.
