Will this work in japan?

No, this will not work in Japan. Japan uses the standard US two prong plug.

Yes. So you can use it in Korea just using plug converter attached to its plug.

It can be used in Japan with a 100-110 Volt outlet. You plug the charger in a 100-110V outlet and it will charge the unit. I found several places in Japan that have this voltage outlet.

Absolutely John. I have used it in Germany, Australia and Japan without issues. (Don't forget to adjust the Hertz from 60 to 50 if need be for the TV. The power supply auto adjusts.)Greg

I would assume it would. My wife took it to the Philippines and it worked fine there.

That's right. I have used the "Japanese version" in the USA and Switzerland and there is no problem at all.

Yes to both. Japan plugs look exactly like North American plugs with 110V and Korea is same as Europe. this adapter can be used anywhere.

It will work anywhere, you just need to load maps for the local you intend to use it in.

It works on my Japanese power supply of 100v, but works best on 120v. I would use a step down transformer if you have 240v.

It will work as long as you have the adaptor that matches the plug configuration of the country you are visiting.

It certainly does comply with US voltage since most of Japan is so close to ours,it should work their also..

No idea. I didn't try US model. All the instructions are indeed in Japanese, but the English ones are available on Sony website. Had no problem with setup/connection whatsoever.

Not a converter. Look at the customer images. Japanese outlets use equal-sized prongs, so you'll need an adapter for that, most likely.

Debbie, I'm not sure but it does work in Japan. From what I remember from staying In Rome that my flat iron would work with a plug converter, just use it on a much lower temperature.

The manual says AC 120v 60Hz so probably not. Transformer windings would be different for Japan.

Yes. My wife has been using it here in California for over a year. The voltage standard in Japan is 100v, and US is 120v, and we both use the standard prong. It will work fine for you. (http://kropla.com/electric2.htm)

Maybe if you live in Asia. Email Sony directly. Everything in the box is in japanese.
