Can I use a converter for 240 volts?

I live in a place where it is 220 V. I am using a small 220/110 (500 W) transformer which works fine.

To charge this tool, it uses 110-120v circuit. If you have only a 240v circuit it's twice the voltage it needs and will burn it out. If you have a converter, it has to cut the voltage down to 110v. I hope this answers your question.

Yes, I already bought the item and it works perfectly fine with both 240 and 120 volts. But thanks for the post anyway.

I'm an electrical student. If the converter does truely says it's a 100-240Volts. Then YES. You can use it in the power outlet that has 240V or any voltage in between. Note the frequency range too. Both must be fulfilled. The adapter is just a shape converter for the connection to the power outlet. Dude, just use a travel adapter. And... if the seller wants to earn more sales, please indicate the voltage. just saying...

I have only been using it with 110V so I don't know if it can be switched to 240V

No - not without using some kind of a step down transformer changing 240 volts to 120 / therefore I would say for simplicity, use only 120 volt service.

You would need plug converter for UK , since it has the us plug. However you won't need voltage converter since it works on both 120 and 240 v

No. It is rated for 120 volt single phase. You would have to reduce the 240 volt to 120 volts.

Look on the device: If it says: INPUT:100-240v" then you can use an adapter.

im pretty sure no but you can buy a voltage adaptor that plugs into your 240 outlet and converts it to a 120 voltage shop on line at parts express.com or find a electronic store and ask them this should work out for you

No you do not need 240v. I would recomend a 20 amp 120vac line for this unit.

It's 115 volts... So you will need a transformer or some other converter to use it with 240v

Sorry about the delay. I deleted all amazon email thinking it was all junk.Didn't see this until I was deleting stuff from my phone. I dont' think it will work on 240. There is no switch to allow changing between 120 and 240v.

No I'm assuming you would need a power down converter 240v will fry the unit and probably even cause you some sort of harm

Hi Beverly, It does not come 240 volts but if you want to call the store toll free at 800-442-8227 and talk with Paul, maybe they make an adapter for it. Thanks, Scott

According to the Zojirushi manufacturer's website, this is rated for 120 volts and that is what I use. It does not say that it can be used at 240 volts so I would not attempt it. If you go to the link that I am attaching, you can download the complete user's manual and also obtain appliance specifications that may better answer your question. There is also a FAQ section. There may be information on products that do use 240 volts. http://www.zojirushi.com/products/cvdyc

The item is only used with 110 volts. I don't know of any that uses 22-240 volts.

If you used a voltage converter that is rated at 1000 watts it should work but I think you would be better off buying an appliance that is designed to work on 240 volts. It would be less expensive overall and more efficient.
