Does this Charger require a converter? e.g. for UK, Europe? And is it able to charge things other than a NEX-6, e.g. iPad, Android Phone? Safe?

The Wasabi charger for the NP-FW50 is rated 120/240AC 50/60 HZ. It is 2 pin US (self storing), so will need the AC plug adapters for UK rectangular pins/Europe , no transformer needed, it does come with 2 pin US to 2 pin round for Europe. But I have not used it in Europe. BTW these batteries work ok, shows discharging rate on Sony a6000 camera. Cannot give good answer for how many photos per charge on Wasabi batteries, because I am still getting used to the camera, but it is long enough for me. If the NEX camera takes the NP-FW50, then it will work. There is no USB port for charging iPad etc, and the charging voltage is for 7.2 / 7.7v dc batteries.

Thank you so much for your prompt response. My camera is still on its way:) but I am planning on using it in UK and Europe in a few months' time. My current camera is very hard on battery consumption so I thought I should make sure I don't constantly run out of juice. Also I will need chargers for iPad and phone overseas and don't want to buy too many gadgets. So, I will see what I will end up buying. Again, I so appreciate your input!

Used in UK just fine. Also converts any current to USB for phones, cameras, etc. without having to use a charger.

Greetings from Russia! We're also on 220V here and the dock works flawlessly. In fact, it is powered through micro-USB jack, so you can use almost any charger that fits the tablet itself.

Nope. Use any port for any item, such as any phones &/or iPads or other tablets. Just do not exceed the 6.2 Amp maximum. Interestingly enough, I discovered that when I went above the max output of the charger it proceeded to charge 2 iPads & 1 iPhone while keeping the third iPad "on hold" until one of the other three items were charged. Then it polished off my phone. Hope this helps. This is the best of 4 chargers I have had. The other thee went into the trash.

Since it charges via USB, you can charge it with any USB charger that can be used over seas. Check your chargers for an input voltage of 100-240V. All of my USB chargers are capable (Apple, plantronics, ASUS, Nook.) Keep in mind that the prongs are different in Europe and UK. There are plug adapters that you can plug into the end of the USB charger.

As I remember, I didn't get a charger with the camera and I bought one online. It is a Wasabi and it supports 240V. If you have a charger, it should say what it supports.

It isn't wise trying to use a charger that is specific for a smartphone on a different device. I tried using a cell phone charger on a digital camcorder that ruined the camcorder. Don't even try it, in my opinion.

Hi,Thanks for the reply. I did some research and looked at some unboxing videos of the CG10. There I saw that the charger and the powercord are separate. If I'm right I only need to buy an european powercord in order for the charger to work in Europe.Thanks again!

Some things have "dual" voltage (most camera and phone chargers, some travel hair irons etc.) and you will find that info somewhere on the device or instructions. If you are not sure, its best to plan on using the converter.

Nooo, the charger acepts 110V, if you have 220V you must use a converter from 220 to 110 hope this helps!

Hello Jin, The charger is rated for 100-240V 50/60 Hz but it only has the standard US (2) prong connection. So depending on where you are going, you still may need a converter.

E George - Oooo...that is a question a Nikon tech would have to answer :-) The charger comes with a standard plug for our US electrical outlets. I found a link to the manual for this camera. The manual should explain compatibility issues. I hope it can help answer your question better than I can :-) Sorry I couldn't be of more assistance :-)

I got my sister in the UK one of these. The charger is rated 100-240 Volts, you just need the adapters for the different shaped outlets.So the answer to your question is yes

Well i went to radio shack and got the converter and extra plugs i needed for london...they worked on all my camera/video camera/battery chargers and portable dvd player. The only thing i had trouble with was hair straightner but anyways just look up power converter in search engine even here on amazon and that will give you some idea of what you need. Just make sure you get a converter and the plugs. Plus if you live close an electronic type store they can explain things alot better. Hope this helps

This converter is unlikely to help you. A few things first , I believe this charger has a rounded prong plug. In most places especially England the plug is a flat three pin MK Plug, so this charger will not fit into most outlets.Secondly theses chargers are meant for light electronics type equipment such as cell phone , ipad, cameras etc. Your cordless screwdriver is equipped with a different electrical cycle from that in found in the UK. Simply using a charger does not covert the charger to 220 0r 240 volts and may cause damage to your equipment.

I'm not sure. I can tell you I bought my camera in Australia and this charger in the US.

Yes, it will work for any of the iOS devices. Pretty sure for any of the mobile devices. I last used it to charge up my Sony NEX6 as well.
