I bought an Xbox 360 in the US & I'm planning to bring it home to Malaysia. The thing is, I'm not sure the power wattage in Malaysia is suitable or not for my console. Of course I'd want it to power up but surely I don't want to blow a fuse sweat.gif . Really hope someone can tell me whether or not I should get a power output converter, and where I can get it, since I've never bought one. Here's a picture of the spec written on my Xbox 360's power brick. Thanks!!!

Thanks for the replies! Now I know I need a step-down transformer, but I'm not sure what's the max watt for it that I should get. Judging from my power brick which states 175W MAX, I'd need a step-down transformer that converts 240V to 110V, 200W. Is that correct?
