Dear Karen: Any device or adapter that can provide you with an output of 1.5 Amperes through an USB connection (v.g. Your laptop or an usb wall adapter) will help. Do not forget it takes about 6 to 8 hours to fully charge with 1.5 A and maybe a little less with 2.1 A (which an iPad wall charger may provide). If you are in Europe any local usb wall charger with 1.5 A will do.

You have to use a USB connection. If you are in a foreign country that has 220V you'll need a converter to 110V to plug your USB connection into. or get a 220V USB charger. It will charge on a computer's USB port but it will take a full 8 hrs.

I'm sure you can as the U.S. standard voltage is 110 or 115v and the charging plug is a two pronge universal plug. The only thing I would say to do differently is to cut the charge time in half as it is twice the voltage and you wouldn't want to overcharge it. Overcharging can shorten battery life. I hope this helps you.

Hi Phil, For some reason when I order this Unit I was sent a device that was set-up for International / Other Countries. The Unit came with an AC Adapter / Charger that had the plugs that are common in Europe, included also in the box was an AC Converter adapter to match and mate with the plugs used in the USA. This caused a whole series of problems for me because it wouldn't re-charge the Battery beyond 65%. When I spoke to Sony the service people told me to do an entire Software System Upgrade. I followed their directions and it did not solve the problem. Only until I used my Computer to Charge the Tablet did I determine that the International version charger along with the US Converter was the problem. I have requested from Sony that they send me a normal USA version AC Charger Unit and its coming in the mail. So my advise to you if you're in the States is to make sure they don't send you a Unit that is sold abroad (i.e. Internationally).

Hello, I am assuming you're asking me how to charge the battery. You have to connect the battery with the charger, which came with the drill. A light/signal will tell you when the battery is fully charged. Always read the manufacturers instructions, or ask for assistance if you're not sure. If you are located outside the United States you will need a converter, in order to charge the battery. If you purchased the drill in the US, but you want to use it in Europe, it's important, that you connect the charger to a converter not just to an adapter. A converter will adjust the amp/voltage of the charger to the amp/voltage that is used in that country, wherever you intend to use the drill. Many countries have different outlets & plugs. In Germany for example, the plug has 2 rounded pins, and the voltage is 220v. A converter prevents the tool, electrical device from getting damaged. Hope it is helpful.

NO you will need to use a step down transformer to 120v however I think they may make a 220v charger however you will probably have to purchase it outside of the U.S.A.

Yes. It came with American charger. It is USB charger so, can be gotten anywhere.

The battery does not come with any power adapter to charge it. It has a mini-usb port for charging. You can charge it by connecting the mini-usb to any powered USB, such as on your computer or on a cell phone charger. In order to charge it overseas you would need to be able to plug in your cell phone charger. If you look at your cell phone charger somewhere it should say "INPUT: 100-240V. If that is the case you DO NOT need to have a power inverter, just an adapter for the plugs which is way cheaper. You can usually find one for only a couple dollars.

And the overseas question is easy. Just get a USB adapter for whatever type of wall socket they use in your destination country. Many hotel rooms provide USB sockets, making even this unnecessary.

Best to charge before going overseas, but might need te recharge when arrived at destination.

For overseas you will have to most likely rewire it, most overseas outlets are different than ours in the US. Best to call the company after you find out what the electric volts and plug type is needed from the country its going to. If its going to a American base it may be fine, check before you spend money shipping. Best i got. Good luck. Anybody else?

It must be charged with a samsumg charger. It depends if your charger is for 110 or 220. But most chargers are able to work with 110 and 220, maybe you just need to find de plug adapter.

If you want to use it in Europe and Asia you will need to buy the adapter. I am American and have traveled to Europe recently. It charges with no problem using the adapter.

This comes with a travel charger; just like what you'll get for cell phones or laptop. Meaning it is international voltage. You just need a convertor to change the US plug (2 flat pin) to EU plug (2 round pin).

We would assume one could charge the battery with an adapter if the current in Europe was not as it is in the USA.

You plug it into any outlet. If you are out if the country, then you need to use an adapter for that country. Nothing special is needed

The charger is rated for international power, so you could use it outside North America with the correct adapter for the country you are visiting.
