Hey guys,

I'm thinking of getting the xbox360 here but i just have one question about the power supply. Is it the 220-240 power supply which is used here in Malaysia? When I'm going back to europe I want to be able to use it without having to use a stepdown etc. Do you know if it's possible just to change the power cable since in europe i'm using another connector which looks like this:



Please advise and thanks for the help!

I would say buy another powerbrick for europe might solve yur problem

i think europe should be similar to malaysia.

as malaysia is following europe/british standard.

but not too sure ..

Voltage is the same, but the pin connector might be different, you can try your luck find a converter for the connector at electrical shop in EU.

If I can find the converter for aussie connector here, i'm sure you can find ours there.

Ace hardware got a lot.

the connector cable to wall socket is removable from the power brick.so it should not be a problem for u looking for that cable.

Thanks for the replies. I know I can just get a converter for the connector my worry was more on the voltage part but I believe it's the same so should be all good.

Nothing to worry about. I got a EU version of xbox and I'm using it in the UK. So far so good. I just the changed the EU power cord to a UK one.

yup just changed the power cord and replug back into the power brick. i brought my asian 360 to NZ last week and all goes very well.

Hi all,

I have a US version of power brick. But the power supply here in M'sia is 220-240V. The power brick I brought in from U.S is only 120V.

How can I connect my X360 to M'sia's power supply without actually frying my system? Kindly advise.

You need to purchase a stepdown power converter. (a device which turns 220v into 100 - 120v). I think you can easily find those stepdown power converter at jalan pasar.. (estimate pricing around RM 150 - RM 200)

find a steady 300W Stepdown Power Converter. (Since xbox 360 needs 203W. Anything below then that won't power up the xbox 360)

Thanks DjiNn,

I've been to Jln Pasar & asked around for the stepdown converter. The price is around what you mentioned.

Say for example if the power is too high. The first thing that will blow is the adaptor and no the X360 right? Because the power goes straight into the adaptor first then only to console. So touchwood, if anything happen, the first thing to go is the adaptor and NOT the console. Can anybody advise on this? This if just for my info.

Just make sure it's not lower than your powerbrick rating.

Higher will not blow your box but you might end up waste more power and pay more on your electricity bill.
