Do I need a special cord for the charger to use in Europe (Spain)

No cord needed. But i'm not sure about the voltage used in spain. As long its 110v. It should be alright

Not unless your voltage is more than 110v.,or the wall receptacles are configured differently from the cord plug.

There are 3 different plugs for that area. They can also have good ol' USA 110v plugs. Amazon sells this 3 pack "Ceptics Grounded Universal Plug Adapter for Europe (Schuko) (Type E/F) - 3 Pack for $7. If you need it sooner I would try Radio Shack.

If you are in Europe you will still have to use an adapter converter to use the charger.

The charger comes with an interchangeable universal voltage adapter which can slide out and be replaced by a regional adaptor. You will need to purchase the regional slider separately,

It worked for me. All You'll need is a plug adapter (NOT a converter) for the country you will be visiting. It charges right up. I've taken it to 4 different countries in Europe now without problem.

Depending on where you travel (and more importantly, where you stay), the wall sockets may have adaptable plugs that will accept US-standard prongs; if so, this charger will work fine. It worked well for me in Budapest at the Four Seasons. This unit does NOT include the longer Euro-style prongs in the box, and I think that's what another respondent meant when he said "no". As the question was voltage-related, not physical prong compatibility, the answer is a qualified yes.

you need to order it from a european store only. http://www.amazon.de/HITACHI-UC18YGSL-40-MINUTE-SLIDE-CHARGER/dp/B00CVMBCYS/ref=sr_1_9?ie=UTF8&qid;=1385081224&sr;=8-9&keywor;ds=hitachi+charger

The voltage is 110,and no it can not be used in Europe without a special plug

Hi Mark, the charger says 110 or 240v so with a US to Europe adapter you shouldn't have any problem

No. Get a converter before traveling to Europe. They are small and convenient.

This is a charger not a battery. So you need to buy an adaptor for European outlets. And plug it to a wall and use it to charge your phone.

Hello,you can get a European plug if you inform us the issue before placing the order,thanks for your attention.

It will not work in europe unless you have a conveter. You can buy them at radio shack. If you are renting a car and have a car charger you can actually take your usb cable and plug it into the side of the charger and put the battery in it and it will charge. i have done this. This is a awesome product

Maybe Spain, but DEFINATELY not London. Plugs for the UK are three pronged. Two flat on the bottom & 1 round on top. I would recommend you pay a little more & get one of the combo/assortment pks with a current reducer plug. This way you will be covered for any outlet you might encounter. Hope this helps & have a great trip.

You plug it into any outlet. If you are out if the country, then you need to use an adapter for that country. Nothing special is needed

Everything you use the outlet for in Europe you will need an adapter. No need in a special one, just a simple basic adapter , that is what I used and had no problems.

The charger was only 120 as far as I could tell. There is really no "charger", you simply plug the unit into the wall, it's just a plain wire, the battery is internal. There might be adapters for using it in Europe, just like using any other plugged in item.

I used it in Spain with my laptop charger and it worked fine so I think it should be good!
