Will the charger work on 240v? (Australia) Cheers!

I doubt it. Usually that will blow the changer. Need to ask the seller to make sure.

no, there is just the 110v adapter, nothing in instructions about alternative choices.

I check the instructions and it does not identify if it works on 240v. Just says AC or DC power and you can plug in with a USB. Sorry.

Im in a 249volt country (Australia) but more by good luck than good management it hasn't burnt out yet.But since finding out it wasnt rated for 240 volts I have kept my eye on it while charging.

Yes. The charger is rated for 100-240 volt 50/60c AC, and comes with a European-style 2 pin 240 volt adapter that fits on the 120 volt blade plug built into the charger. You might have some trouble finding a 240 volt European-style receptacle, however.

The charger says it is rated for 100-240V and 50/60Hz, so you will only need an adapter, not a converter. I have mine connected to a 240v power supply through an adaptor.

Plugs fit Australian sockets but Australia is 240v. Plugs will not convert 120v to 240v. Will burn out your U.S. electronics if unit does not have an input/ output controller/resistor, like you woulld find on laptops, most phone chargers and items designated for international usage. i.e. U.S. hairdryers and haircurlers will most likely burn out.

Yes, this is the international version and the charger works on 100-240 volt.

Most all chargers (e.g. for cell phone, camera, laptop) can handle 100-240V and only an adapter is needed -converter won't hurt though. If the devices says nothing, chances are good it can't handle 240 V and you have to have a converter. You'll damage the device otherwise. The converter needs to be able to handle the Watts of the device

We purchased this in Australia and plugged it in. Lights came on and after burning smell went out and it has not worked since. The answer is it DOES NOT work with 240V.

It has an ac adapter and the prongs twist off so that another type can go on. The charger is rated to accept the 240 volt input. I would thing you would just need to change the contacts.

The voltage on the charger indicates 110V to 240V. I used the charger in Japan and the Philippines (which I think uses 220V) and it worked ok.

I don't know if they make 220-240v , the one I bought only use 120v only. If u going back to Australia u need the step down transformer from 240v to 120v. I hope this will answer ur question.

It says on the charger 110v-240v that you have to switch it so it should be . I think so .

Hi did you ever find out if the charger would take 220v - 240v as electrical AC supply? thanks

For this model of charger it is. Other chargers and such may have different power needs, but for the most part, with stuff like this, it's going to be 120V. Any model that plugs into 240V will reduce power before going into the battery.

One of the images has 100-240V on the power pack. And I successfully used this in Australia (240V) with just a regular plug converter.

Hmm, I got the answer. Check the review by MF on September 10, 2011. He wrote: "Un-fortunately I didn't have the chance to try it all, it doesn't work with 220V used in Australia & was damaged immediately ( my mistake I didn't remember to check)" Even I bought this and I'll have to get a step-down transformer before using it in 220-240 V countries.

The one I ordered came standard with a US style plug, and it is very handy since it folds down into the charger. You could easily put an Aussie adapter on it without having to use a transformer, because it is rated 120 - 240v, 50 or 60 hz. All you would need is one of the little plug adapters.
