 |
|
Here is a quick question regarding voltage and my 360. I have a 360 with a North American plug. I also have a 2 prong N.A. to Korean adapter that I bought last year. The adapter is dirt cheap but serves the purpose of supplying power to North American devices. No my question to anyone who may know the answer is, can I just use my 360 with my NA plug and adapter no problems? I know that for laptops and such, the big box on the cord allows for a range of voltages, is this the same for a 360? The 360 has a rather large power supply, which allows for the cord to be pulled out and I assume swapped for another type. I have a feeling that all Xbox power supplies world wide may be the same and it is just the cords that are different.
Your thoughts?
Cheers |

| No don't do this it will destroy your xbox. Your xbox runs on 110 volts and Korea is on 220 volts you need to buy a converter first. |

Mine was about the same price, but I got it from a little electronic shop near the apartments I'm staying.
I wanted to go to Yongsan but I didn't know where to begin my search  |
