WaywardTraveller Posted September 23, 2006 Report Share Posted September 23, 2006 I checked the charging cradle for my new gold MZ-NH1 (bought in Beijing), and the power adaptor seems to be 220V, which is in keeping with Asian voltage (oddly enough, it seems to have rectangular North-American style prongs! ).My question is: if I plug this in to a North American wall-socket (110V), will it still work? Or do I need to buy a voltage adaptor to use it when I get back home?On a somewhat related topic....there wouldn't happen to be any LIP-4WM battery chargers out there, would there?peaceWaywardTraveller Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WaywardTraveller Posted September 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2006 (edited) Yeah...I was wondering, though, if it might just take longer to charge if 110V comes into the unit as opposed to 220V? I have a universal travel plug adaptor, so connecting it is no problem; I just don't want to compromise the charging and fry or otherwise break something... peaceWaywardTraveller Edited September 24, 2006 by WaywardTraveller Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ishiyoshi Posted September 24, 2006 Report Share Posted September 24, 2006 If the MZ-NH1's AC Adaptor you have acquired in Beijing is strictly a 220V, you will likely get fried MZ-NH1 in an 110V environment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a CHN sticker on it, so it appears to be a Chinese edition (if such a thing exists?). Looks like it's voltage adaptor time...which is cool, as long as I know. Thanks Ishi peaceWaywardTraveller Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
