Hey guys. I have a Japanese Xbox 360 premium set that I bought in 2006 and unfortunately, I bought a lousy transformer to go along with it. I was wondering.. Would the Japanese 360 work if I swap the Japanese 360 power brick for an Asian one? Thanks in advance for any answers.

erm,i guess it'll work..
because all xbox 360 should work on the same 175/200w 12v..
the difference is only the power brick..in US they operate on 110v, in Uk 240v, and Japan 100v..just change the power brick to suit the input voltage where ever u are..
but again..i think soo..

i dont think so...cause japanese console diffrent then asia version...the voltage...im afraid if u using japanese console then swap the asia power brick might harm ur 360 brother

but u could refer to manuals for the correct power supply..can you?

Alamak. I already threw away the manual lah. Anybody else with a certain answer?

japanese 360 required transformer to play in malaysia....the asia 360 no need any transformer....plug direct....that is why i think if japanese 360 swap the power brick with asia will harm the 360 cause diffrence voltage !

If you are using a japanese xbox 360 using an asia power brick (220v) it will confirm work on your console.

but if you want to use back your japanese power brick (110v) you confirm need a stepdown converter.

ok...got it...where can i buy the power brick for the 360 , the asia power brick ? just keep it for back-up

Djinn, have you tested this yourself? I need a sure confirmation. Plus, do you know where can I get an Asian power brick?

yup. I test before , using asia power brick on Japaneses and us console. no problem

funny, I thought aegis will come in and explain all the stuff again

by the way, you can find power brick but not from official Microsoft, mostly are third party products.

So where can I find those third party 360 power bricks?

any game shop do sell it, I'm out of stock anyway,

but been "hand itching" want to use the power supply as the power brick (hardware mod) been thinking to do it..

but still can't find the correct time to do.

Oh ok. Thanks a lot, Djinn! I appreciate it!

i already bought third party brand power brick...it cost me around rm100 something...( i cant remember )...but is it good? cause im not test it to my console yet cause , the other power brick seems perfect condition...

If the console accepts 220V input and the power brick outputs 110V then what he needs is a stepup transformer not a stepdown.

aiyaaa...u know djinn the sifu bout the 360 man , he already tested all sorts of 360 version with tha asia power brick...muaaah !
