Does it run better on 220 volts?

No it will not run better. You could use a cord that is smaller in size with less resistance. Double theh voltage and you cut the amps in half.

Most motors that run on either 110 or 220 will better on 220 volts. Basically you have twice the voltage (power) available for the motor to use. A no Brainer!

Mine took 110 volts. I don't remember if it also worked on 220 volts. Anyway the ac adapter didn't last long and I had to replace it with one I bought on Amazon.

It runs on both (110/220...50/60 hz).I sent one to my mother in Germany and all it takes is a Euro adapter.

No, Unfortunately this unit is only operable under 120V power source. You can use a converter to run this on 220V but you need to purchase the converter seperately, as we do not sell those.

No, it will not run on 220 -- anything bought in North America is specifically set for 110 volts. The AC plug will only "fit" a 110 volt outlet. A specialty 220 store might be able to supply one; I suggest you contact either 1-888-726-4326 (in California) or e-mail the factory in Taiwan at ivan@sangean.com.tw .

Yes, I'm currently running it on 110...been thinking of converting it to 220....

Hi, I would assume that it runs on 120v. My house is all 120. Contact the Mfg. to make certain though. Good luck~

It runs on 110V, so you would have to buy a converter to run it there where 220V is being used.

No, it only runs on 120v AC, so you would need a voltage converter to use 220v.

I use it on 120V and havent tried it on 220v so i unfortunately dont know.sorry.

This machine runs on 120volts. If you are an international buyer, you will need a converter for this machine.

Yes. It runs on either 12 or 110 V. You connect both and if 110 is available, it will use it as a priority. If you will never have 110 available, then just connect it to 12V.

It actually runs on 12 Vdc and comes with an adapter for 120 Vac. It should work as long as you can buy a 240 Vac to 12 Vdc locally. Adapters are relatively cheap.

Hi Karen, I'm sorry to say that it does not work on 220 volts. I checked with the factory to see if it would work with an adapter and they said it doesn't. Sorry. Steve

it runs on 110 Volt. Hope this helps. Cheers FYI I am very satisfied with the machine.

Not sure about 220 since I only used it in the US with 110. The power source is external though and I suspect it would run on either.

Hello Paul, no the unit does not run off of a 220 volt power supply. It is a standard 120 volts.
