Is this cord only for 110 volts or for both 110 and 220 volts? My original, and the one Norelco sells now, which looks the same, is for both.

It will work at both input voltages. Specifications list the charger input at 100 - 240 VAC; 50/60 Hz.

@Jonathan - The T990 i bought from the US in 2003 had 110-240 volt input written on the adaptor, and I remember clearly that the online manual also said the same thing (that was a deciding factor). The T-980 online manual only mentions 110 and when I spoke to customer support, they said the same thing as in the manual, just as in your case.Ideally, Philips Norelco should come out clearly with this voltage information in the product specs on websites where its products are sold (rather than hiding it in some obscure documents). This would save us a lot of detective work and the guessing games. @Jonathan - The T990 i bought from the US in 2003 had 110-240 volt input written on the adaptor, and I remember clearly that the online manual also said the same thing (that was a deciding factor).

I just looked and it is on the plug end. I used mine a bit different. I have 220 vac going into it with a 220 vac receptacle doe the out. I am feeding in 220 into the 120 plug on a converted extension cord. it works just fine and safely as nobody else gets to touch it.

The one I bought only works on 120 volts, I don't know if they make one for 220 volts.

I would also like to know if this is dual voltage (I understand I would need to use an adapter) I just want to make sure it's dual voltage first. Does it say 110-220 or something like that???

The same one I bought is for a 220 outlet, just do research on the outlet type/style. Mine looks like a face with 2 horizontal eyes and the mouth (which is the ground). Just be aware their are 2 sizes for 220. The big size which are for stoves etc big appliances and then their are the smaller 220 plugs. Google search different plug shapes or styles and then you can get exact by comparing this ac and specs to the one that matches yoursHope this helped

Mine came with a 110v detachable cord. Perhaps there is a 240v version available thru another source.

This extension cord is for a 220v circuit. Do thise devices work off the usual 120v, or 220v.? If the latter them be certain that the plug is compatible with your outlet. While all 120v outlets are pretty much the same , there are many different types of 220v outlets, usually as a function of current ( amperage). You can never go wrong using an extension rated at higher current capability than you need but, again, assuming thar the plug matches the outlet( oh, I should add, and the plug on the power cord on your device .).

not quite sure i've only ever used it on my regular 120v...i really think you shouldn't use the 220 plug, those are for stove, ac, dryers

Yes you can use this for 110v / 60Hz. Note that this cord will only fit in a North American 110-120v outlet.

The nameplate on mine says "120 volt" & that applies to the iron and cord. It would not be safe to use on 220 volt . If you purchased a model designed for Europe, it would look similar but be rated appropriately .

I know for sure it works for 110 v not sure about 220 - guessing this means you are outside of U.S. - sorry not familiar with how that works.

don't waste your time with the cord details. plan on purchasing a 220v male plug of your choice and or hook it up direct to a 220v disconnect. but to answer your question, my unit was shipped with a standard 110v plug ( pig tail). only small problems with the unit so far, the trigger handle is cheap and just stops but if you squeeze the handle it fires back up. other than that its a great little home unit.

I purchased one, and it came wired for 110 with a plug-in cord. I reconfigured it for 220 and put in on a switched circuit by itself. My understanding is that this caused less wear on the motor.

Does anybody knows what is the voltage output of the adapter cord for the BG2040? (it can be seen on the adapter), I have two of them and have to decide.Thanks

Me too, I really need to know if it is 110v or 220v My house has no power to 220volts, just 110v You know where I could found this information? Thanks!

The one I got is 110v, i dont think will work with 220v but check the description its made in China and usually they make them both
