The box our device came in says 220v, but all of the sources online indicate that no transformer to 110v is needed. Is this true?

The Doctor Life model that we received plugs into a 110v with no adapter, and works as directed.

I can't recall the instructions but my LX7 uses 110V. If is 220V, the plug should be different than a 120V plug

On the back of the unit there is a label with 220 v and 110 v. If the check box next to 220 v is checked you got the European version and you have to return the unit.

I bought the iM600 in the US and it's 110-230V, so no transformer needed, just a simple $2 plug adapter.

You have to buy the one that says for 220. The transformer is different between 110 and 220.

comes with a plug-in transformer(120v)...think this was your question...good luck.

I bought mine from Amazon UK since I needed a 240V version (I was moving abroad). If you buy from Amazon US, it should be 110V.

The one I have says "input: 100-240v". You should not need a transformer, just an adapter.

Because I try to use a 220 volt adapter.Can only if the adapter without transformer(110->220)?

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 . . .

If you buy it in the US and the country you are going to uses 220V, you will need a voltage transformer. You will also need a plug adapter.

US has a power surge input of 110v, Australia has the highest one globally with 240v. If it does not work it will burn your device. I bought one in the US and I live in Europe which has a current of 220v. I was advised to buy a power convertor. Something that converts to an output of 9v 700mA. Any electrical shop will have that. Having said that, when I opened the box of the Leap Pad 2 Power I bought for my son the AC adaptor that comes with it says Input 100v - 240v and the leaflet that came with it lists the different currents for US/Canada, UK/Europe and Australia/NZ. I am thinking it comes prepared for all these countries but it does not state this clearly so I still have doubts. I am going to research more but the safest bet is to buy the power convertor which should be no more that 20 ozzie dollars.

This is not an electric voltage converter. It's just an electric power strip that allows gadgets from all over the world to be pluged in . So you dont have to buy a separate power strip that works for 110V and another strip that works for 220V. Your gadget should mention what kind of voltage it will work on. If its dual voltage (110V-220v) then its much better and you can use this otherwise you will need a converter as your gadgets only work in 220V

This model I ordered is 110V only. It does not have a transformable power supply built in like many new electronics do. I had to buy an external voltage transformer to use it in New Zealand which is 220v and 50 Hz. It works great.

The one I bought is from USA which is 110V, I had to buy a transformer to be able to use it in singapore.

Glad to have found this discussion. I also saw the downloadable manual which says it must be plugged into 110v outlet. The rep I just spoke to at Philips said the same thing... though he was just going by the info in the manual too.I have seen numerous comments from people on product reviews around the Net saying it will take 110 to 240v. Some people say it won't.My question is this: is there anyone else in this discussion (other than Nathan and Serghei) who received a 110-240v adapter? Also, M.Lee, does your (now dead) adapter say "110v input only" on it? When did you by it, and where from?Thanks folks. I travel a lot, and most countries I go to use 240v, so I am keen to figure this one out. Glad to have found this discussion.

I reckon that they have both. I ordered from US and hence got the 110V. I guess if you order from UK amazon you should get 220V :) I will double check the rating on my plugs and let you know

If your machine only operates on 110-120 voltage, the answer is yes. However, many electronic devices operate on dual voltage, and do not need a transformer/converter. Check your machine/device, and if the power adapter or other area of the machine indicates "input 110-220v," you do not need a converter/transformer. If it only indicates "input 110v," then you do need a converter/transformer.

No, because it's different voltage. In USA, use 115V so in order to use in 220V, you need transformer.
