Not to drag this up from the past...
But if I bring my NA DS to Korea, stick a plug converter on the end of my NA plug to slot it into a Korean socket, does the NA power cord automatically re-adjust the voltage? Or will I have to buy myself a transformer?
(Basically the reverse of what the original thread was about, lol... NA DS to Korea using an NA power cord) |

Check to see what voltage the adapter is rated at. If it says a range like 110-220v, it will be fine. I'm not home right now so i can't check for sure, but it should be written on there somewhere. |

Doh... The NA adapters are only rated for 110v...
Second question then.... Are Korean adapters compatable with NA DS's?
(IE - Could I buy a power cord in Korea for a DS and use it with my NA model?) |

Yes, thats actually what I did. I have a korean one and a US one, they both work fine and won't damage your DS |
