If I buy this in the states and then took it to the UK with a 240V electricity supply would this work or not work? TIA

The G110V2 only works on 110 VAC. Perhaps there is a model G240VX that will work with 240 VAC.Sorry, it really does a good job. Probably wouldn't do such a good job on 240 VAC for very long.

I am pretty certain that it will work at 240v. However, the lamp-base is US (etc) standard. Check your socket to make sure such a lamp will actually screw into it.

Yes, no problem; you'll need a plug adaptor, but the power supply will accept 110 to 240v. It's a great thing - well worth it!

I lived in England for four years , you will have to buy a converter to convert the electricity from 240V to 110V they are not very expensive.

The plug has USA prongs but is endorsed "accepts voltages 100V to 240V and outputs at 7.5v so I would have thought that it should work in the UK if you have a plug adapter, and should not need a transformer. I hope that helps. The batteries also last a very long time. (Sorry for the delay, I was away from home so did not have acces.)

No, it won't. Voltage in USA is 110V and in UK is 220V (I don't know the exactly nominal voltage in this two countries - I live in South America). You can buy a T-Rex Power Supply, which has a voltage selector, and also has isolated outputs.

Noooo! You have this wrong - it is an extension lead for US power - the protector is a standard RCD which kicks in if there's a short somewhere! It DOES NOT convert from one voltage to another!! A voltage transformer always has to be in there! You plug a 110v item into this then into the 240v mains in the UK then you will have the protector trip which is preferable to having the US electrical item blow up on you.If you are unsure - please buy from a shop where you can speak to someone for advice, rather than buy off the interwebs and risk danger or wasting money.

it will work if you have a transformer to 220v, all electric devices work in the same way in Europe when you take them from here.

Will not work on 240v it will burn up. Would have to use a power converter.

I checked my owners manual and it states "This product is designed for use in the United States of America". The manual also says in the Specifications section "Power source: 120V AC, 60 Hz". I would think that it would not work on 240. Hope this helps.

No, this won't work. The UK uses a different plug type than continental Europe does. You should look for a plug adapter specifically for the UK.

It should work with a 220 volt system. The back of the device fits over a standard on/off wall light switch and moves it up or down with battery power, not household current. It does not plug in, and there is no electrical connection between the device and your electrical system. I agree with James Carey's comment and disagree with those who say it will not work. The only issue should be the size of your switch, the plastic knob that goes up or down to turn the lights on and off. I am set up on a 120 volt system, so have not personally used it on 240volts. If it does not work for some reason, I have found Amazon to stand behind its products, so would probably be returnable.

No it will not work with 240V. It is only 110V. But you can still use it if you buy a coverter or transformer.

I would think you need a converter since this a 120V product. You could check with the company to see if they make a 240V version.

I haven't been there & was only in England, but when I bought it it was called a US to UK adapter which means theoretically that it must work throughout the United Kingdom. It doesn't convert voltage, but only the international plug style. I would think it works every where in the UK.

Hi,NO it will not work in UK as is because it is on 110 v , if you have an adapter then it will.

The Label reads: input 110-240VThat means it should work. Anyway outside the US I always carry a world adapter which includes a converter.
