Brader, I need a confirmation from you abt charger in Japan. Some friends tells me different story so I am not sure which one I should follow. We need transformer to charge our handphone, laptop, camera while in Japan, right? Their voltage is 100-110v, but ours is 220v-240v. I don't think we can just plug in to charge without transformer. Pls enlighten me. QUOTE(RegentCid @ Oct 8 2013, 07:55 AM) Early of November will be around 18 to 15 celcius. The rest you figure out your self.

Pls enlighten me. Most chargers nowadays can accept 110-240V. Just check the specs on the adapter/plug.

Malaysia Charged woks find in Japan..only need change the socket head.
Malaysia Adapter can withstand 240V while Japan just 110V. This call totally under stress.
But Japan Adapther is 110V ..if used in Malaysia 230V. It will Burn in 1 Sec.

They are using 2 pin plug. That's mean I need to use universal adapter. QUOTE(RegentCid @ Oct 8 2013, 11:41 AM) Malaysia Charged woks find in Japan..only need change the socket head.

If you buy Japan electonic stuff back to Malaysia then u need transfomers to step down the vol from 230V to 110V. Because the Adapther only can withstand 110V malaysia stuff totaly save at there This post has been edited by RegentCid: Oct 8 2013, 11:50 AM

I bought 2 pin small plug while I was in Korea. Small & light. But can't use it in Japan because the pin is round. QUOTE(mat sputnik @ Oct 8 2013, 12:01 PM) Yes, 2-pin American plug. I like this plug, so small, unlike the bulky UK one we use in MY!
