I know it says AC power adapter plug, 110v, does the unit use a 12 volt input so I can use it in my car?

Based on the specs off the transformer (the one I own), and the type of connector going into the charger, I'm inclined to think it would require finding a 12-volt adapter that would convert 12 volts to 2 inputs (going into the charger) of 18V and 20V respectively in a single cable. The connector plug on the back of the charger is a DIN plug with 6 pins (looks like a round PS/2 connector for mouse/keyboard). Transformer Specs for Charger: INPUT: AC 100-240V 50/60Hz 1200mA OUTPUT 1: DC 18V 2000mA OUTPUT 2: DC 20V 100mA PINS: Output 1: Pin 1, 2 Output 2: Pin 3, 4 Gnd: Pin 5,6,7 Easiest route (just my opinion only) would probably be getting either an inverter, modified sine wave inverter, or pure sine wave inverter for the 12-volt plug in your car, then just plug the charger into the inverter via the transformer/adapter. My personal preference for electronics is a pure sine wave inverter, but these are a lot more expensive than a regular inverter. However, their power is cleaner and more stable (safer for electronics, in other words). I haven't researched finding a 12-volt car adapter that converts to 2 output channels of 18V/20V via a DIN 6-pin male connector, so I'm not sure how hard it would be to find that type of item in order to run this in a vehicle. My initial thought is that it would prove difficult to find/do.

Super charger, but no direct car adapter. As someone else responded, an inverter would be needed.

No. This unit uses 18 and 20 volts on a multipin connector, you could use a small inverter in front of it to run from 12 volts.

The power adapter has US plugs only, but states that it can handle input AC:100-240V/0.6A.

Don't know but I plug it into a standard 110 grounded plug and it works wrll.

Yes, it takes between 100 and 240 Volts AC input at 50/60Hz @ 0.6A. The output is 12V @ 2.0A. Plus it comes with three different power adapter plugs. The regular one for North America of course, along with one for the UK and one for the EU. They just snap on the power plug. A nice universal power adapter. Hope this info helps.

In the AC adapter of the unit I purchased, the input is mentioned as 100-240 V 50-60 Hz. I've not tried 220 or 240 V connection to the unit to confirm it would work.

It is 120 volts AC ONLY! Standard wall plug, two prong. The 12 volt DC cig. lighter adapter is so that you can charge your car battery from inside the vehicle.

Your inputting 12 volts d.c. from the car batteries electrical system, which the inverter conerts to 110v volts a.c. This is an excellent unit. I can use a hammer drill, circular saw, shop vac from from my service vehicle. Make sure to order an inline 200 amp fuse and fuse holder, along with 6 gauge wires. I also highly recommend getting the remote control to make it easier to turn on/off.

When I looked at the voltage listed on my power adapter it said "Input - 100-240VAC, 0.5A Max 50/60 Hz..... Output - 12V" Hope this helps

Looks like it plugs into a cigarette lighter in your car. I don't see any AC outlet nor do any of the reviewers mention 120V AC ouput. Hope this helps.

This inverter will power anything that runs a 120v plugin if you wire it correctly. However, if you didn't know the answer to this question. Have a PROFESSIONAL install it for you. Otherwise there is a good chance you will blow up the unit or burn your car.

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

This unit plugs into 120VAC Socket. The regular house socket that is a grounded type. Not designed to plug into the cigarette lighter in your car.

The unit works on 12 volt DC.From the output of the adapter that converts 120 volt AC. to 12 Volt DC.

no it isn't only 120V.. you will need to source one for the 220-240V. You might have to go with a 220-240vAC to a 12VDC adapter than use the car adapter, this will also probably help you with other devices you will be taking..

I took the following information from the bottom of the AC adapter: Input: 100-240V AC, 50/60Hz; Output: 12V - 2.5A. I hope this helps...

it does not... but you can buy this from Amazon and you will be able to plug ANY AC Cord into it off your 12VDC Power supply-TsirTech® 175 Watt Portable Micro Power Inverter With USB Port --- 12v AC to 110v DC Car Plug Outlet Converter For Your iPod, iPad, iPhone, Android, Tablets, DVD Players, Laptops, Netbooks, And cellphones

Yes, the power cord plugs into a standard 115v AC outlet. Also, be aware that there is no 12v circuit protection of any kind on this unit (it doesn't mention that either). The DC terminals are VERY close together, so be careful.
