I just received my adapter and tested the US plug before I leave for Europe. I am not getting any power when I plug it in. Help!

I tested my US plug, also, & it worked well, but only for 1 device. Would not charge a second. I arrived in Germany on Friday & the EU plug isn't working at all. Very disappointed over the wasted money!

Hi, I tried that as well, got a response which basically pointed me towards some FAQs which didn't answer the question.I ordered one when I was in the US, and the voltage seems correct, so it should work with just a normal adaptor, but I haven't tried it yet. I think it's 110-240V.

If you had it plugged into a computer it probably used the power from that. It didn't work for me without the adapter being plugged in. If you don't need it, just put it aside just in case you do at some point.

If you bought it in the US and taking it to Europe you need to convert the power from 110 to 220 or it is going to burn out. Either the power cable already has the converter and it is a small black box that is part of the power cable. All you need is an adapter for the plug. If the power cable is just a plain cable without a special little black box attached to it then you need to buy a 50 dollar transformer. It is cheaper to order those on Amazon as I have done.

Yes, I am having problems. It was working fine but today I unplugged it and plugged it in another place and it doesn't work. Went back tot the original plug and it doesn't work anywhere. The Screen shows the word POWER, but there is none. I cannot find a "do this if this" item in the manual so I have no choice but to return it. I liked the previous Sangeans (PR-D5) I bought. This was a up step but I am very disappointed.

US plug, but then again, I bought it in the US - you can try amazon.uk to see if it comes with a European plug or perhaps a converter that will condition the voltage so you can use it over there -

There's some kind of adapter for a European plug-in of some sort. Never used it before and not sure where too if that helps at all.

Yes you need a specific adapter for the uk as they are shipped with us ones there was an instruction leaflet with ours advising not to use a travel adapter as this would not work and cause damage you need to find the right type of ac adapter that gives a regulated current and the voltage and current are in the box

That one is ok http://m.lightinthebox.com/us-plug-to-eu-and-us-plug-ac-power-adapter-110-240v_p480193.html?currency=USD&litb;_from=paid_adwords_shopping&pla;_adwid=2097558121_122615241_10890476721_58276117041&gclid;=CN6Tns7stL4CFUOFOgodEDsAjQ

I just bought this item. It only came with the standard USA plug configuration. You might want to contact the manufacturer to see if they offer it with the UK plug configuration. Or purchase an adapter.

Not sure what you mean by that. I have it plugged into a regular outlet here in the US. In the UK the voltage is different so you'd need an adapter.

I have personally used it in the US, UK, Bulgaria, Slovenia, Israel, Mexico and Japan. Had no issues at any of these locations. Just needed the right power adapter for each country :)

Mine only came with the standard US plug. Unless I missed something, you'll need a transformer plug for international use.

I don't know. I would look for the European adapter to be on the safe side.

I take mine to Europe all the time and plug it in without a power converter. I simply use a plug adapter for the outlet. On the bottom, it is embossed with "110-240V". If yours is similarly-embossed you should be able to use just an adapter. If yours says "110-120 V", you'll definitely need a power adapter as well.

It comes with US power adapter. It will require an international power adapter to work with European plugs. I got one and it works perfectly.

I've lived in Japan for 6 years--you don't need an adapter to use US devices in Japan, unless maybe you have something that is grounded (3 prongs) as some outlets in Japan aren't grounded. Their voltage is slightly less than ours, 110V as compared to 120V in the United States, so no worries there, either.
