I would like to ask the same question because I want to buy it as a gift for my friends in China. Appreciate the manufacturer or user can answer us. Thanks.

This particular adaptor only works with 110V. I would check with the manufacturer to see if they make 220V adaptors. I would not use a voltage converter to try and make it work. Too many potential problems.

Definitely do not count on it working in a 220V outlet. I had another mini adapter that I loved until I plugged it into an outlet in England. Not only did I incinerate the adapter but I blacked out the entire B&B.;

Hi,This is what it says on the adaptor, AC POWER ADAPTOR, INPUT :AC 100-240V~, 50/60Hz 8W 20VA 150 mA, OUTPUT : DC5V-1000mA.

Hi There:This adapter transform ac input voltage to dc output for telephone. If outlet voltage at your home is 220 Volts there is no reason to not work. Adapter output voltage is a little high in order to load batteries installed.

Using 220V should be no problem if you simply get 220V power supplies that put out the DC volts that these units operate on. If a unit works on some low DC voltage, the unit doesn't know how you got the DC voltage, neither does it care -- whether from batteries or whatever.

Prior to answering, I carefully reread the instructions. No where is this question answered or addressed. I simply don't know. Technical info from instructions:" Power requirements: DC Adapter: 9vcd, 500 mA. Sorry!

It all depends on the wall adapter, as long as the wall adapter can be plugged into a 220v outlet and has an output of 5v 1-2amp. So check the adapter and you will find some very small print, if it says "input:110-220v..." if it does then your good.

I can't speak to either on personal experience. Specific locations may vary within a country. Try <www.walkabouttravelgear.com> as one source of information for adapters world wide. Refer to their " world-wide electrical index". Do be sure to check your appliances for compatibility with 220V power. That is a universal in Africa. Most new appliances are, but will burn up if they are not. Transformers and converters are available, and not cheap for reliable ones.

Mine here in the US has the two-blade plug for North America. Power adapter input is listed as 100-120V, 50-60Hz, 0.3A. Power adapter output is listed as 5VDC and 2A. For the plug which plus into the back of the switch, the center receptacle is positive, and the outer shell is negative. The center receptacle is about 0.078" across (2mm); the outer shell is about 0.218" across (5.5mm). ?Perhaps you could use a 220V supply that puts out 5VDC and splice the cord that plugs into the switch? hth.

Never checked it on other countries.There are different adapters from the same brand for other countries.Anyway, I am very satisfied with this product ( I bought several units)

Hi, this adapter is 7.5V unfortunately, I use it on a phone that works with 6.5V. The voltage drops to 6.8V, it is ok. Do not use this adapter for devices that work with 5.5V

I emailed the manufacturer and asked them if it would work on 220v and this is what they said:"It is rated for 110-240 volts, 50/60 Hz, 105 watts of power"I think with a simple adapter, it should work just fine anywhere in the world.

The power adapter is 110v. So you will need a step down converter, which is 220v to 110v. Also, the quality of your converter is very important. If it is not good enough, you will hear some buzz when it is very quiet, like zezezeeeee, dididiiiii. But I think the better solution is to get a professional power adapter or a power source, which can convert 220v to 9v or directly provide 9v power. 9v is directly used by the amp and so we do not use the original power adapter because the quality of it may not very well so you may also hear some buzz if use the original power adapter.

I do not know if this particular item will work on overseas current but most small appliances will work with an adaptor or converter for the different power supply.

Power adapter is 100-240V, 50-60Hz, 150mAh input, 5V, 1A output. That'll work anywhere in the world I can think of. Make sure you have the right plug adapter (you will NOT need a transformer, but just a plug adapter to physically fit the plug to wherever in the world you are traveling to). You can find these things at travel stores, AAA, drugstores, department stores, etc.

I can only answer on the unit I have (you will need to check the one you get) The power supply (part of the power plug) has written on it 120-240V 50/60 Hz. That means mine will work from 120 to 240v a/c at 50to 60 cycles per second (Hz) BUT.....The plug is not a UK/European plug and so an adapter will be required.I can say mine will work but you will have to check the power supply you receive with the unit. (You never know they may change the specifications so we have to buy a different power supply to use it overseas. That way we have to pay more.) G.F.H.
