does it plug into a 15 amp 230 watt or just a regular wall socket?

This IS a 115 Volt air conditioner. Properly wired/fused 115 Volt electrical outlets have 15 Ampere circuit breakers. This will only draw high current momentarily (several seconds) when the compressor is restarting. It should _not_ be on a circuit which has other appliances to prevent tripping the circuit breaker. So, id does plug into what many persons consider a "regular" 3-prong wall outlet. Anyone who wants the 230 Volt version of this 12,000 BTU model should search Amazon for ASIN: B0056C818U.

It's 1500 watts but more importantly, it draws 12.5 amps. Amps are more important. Most home circuits have 15 amp breakers or fuses so there should be nothing else on this circuit but the fan. DO NOT use an extension cord unless it is approved by an electrician. It works well (for me) and doesn't cost a lot to run. When the unit is on and warm, the color on the front screen changes (from black) to a lighter color. The company says this may wear out with use over time. The nice feature is the it has a "tip-over" switch that turns the unit off when it is knocked over. Stand it back up and it will start again. Just be careful about where you place it and that little ones can't get at it.

It is a 180 watt heater. 180W / 12V = 15A. You will need a 15 amp fuse if the heater is the only thing on the circuit. If you have anything else drawing power on the circuit a 15 amp fuse will probably blow.

I looked through the booklet and could not find a watt rating. I've always just plugged mine into the normal wall outlet to use. Haven't had any problems.

It only plugs into a standard 120 volt outlet. It will not work in a 220 volt 15A outlet.

The power cord has an ac adapter which converts your AC voltage which for me is 230 volts to DC 15 volts.Hope this helps.

It plugs into a regular household outlet. The plug indicates 8AMPS 125VOLTS. Directions with the detachable plug says to avoid overheating and potential fire, do not use on broilers, toasters, irons or devices rated over 1000 WATTS. So I would think the 230 outlet would overheat this device.

It is rated at 15amps @ 120 volts. That would be a total of 15 amps for everything plugged into both sockets. One socket is x10 controlled and the other is like a normal socket-always on.

The holder plugs into an ordinary wall socket.it says 24 watts on the base. I"m very happy with it. I got 2.

Yes it does plug into a standard wall socket We have three of them...in utility room, kitchen, and office....they are great and we are very happy with them.

A standard 15 amp/110 volt outlet will run a device with 1500-1800 watt draw, which is what a normal hand held hair dryer would draw. This device is only 36 watts. You could in effect have about 40 of these chargers plugged in a power bar on a single 15 amp wall plug.

Just a standard 120 from standard American power outlets. Not sure what you would have to do if you are in a location with a different voltage coming from the wall.

Yes, this plugs into a standard wall outlet. For the money this is a great light, I am fixing to order 25 for a Christmas display.

A 15 amp grounded circuit can handle 1800 watts. This unit uses 1500 watts. I would not have anything else on the same circuit except perhaps one 100watt light bulb. I found my unit only heated within 3 feet,so I returned it. Maybe I got a lemon,but my heater was not an effective source of heat.

I'm no electrician, but as a rule of thumb, I pick a gauge that will meet our exceed the amperage rating of the outlet. Typical household wall sockets are designed to safely provide 15amps.Check out the link for a list of gauges and amshttp://www.powerstream.com/Wire_Size.htm

It has a regular prong-type plug - so it needs to be plugged into the wall.

It plugs into a regular 120-volt outlet. The Watts is 200, which is about 1/8 of a regular hair dryer.
