do you need to use a different transformer to use this tool in the UK, the tool says input 120 v and we are 240 v here?

I would recommend finding another alternative to this tool. Perhaps a Dremel.

I think not it comes standard with 120Volts.You would probably need a "stepup" transformer adapter

It is not universal. You will need a 110V transformer if you are in a country using 220-240V.

Please check your electronic if it says INPUT: 100-240V then you do not need a voltage converter or transformer. You may simply use an adapter plug such as this. If the Input voltage range is only 110V or 120V then you'll need an appropriate size voltage converter.

Hi Patricio. I have never used 220VAC with this; I only use standard 120Volt outlet. Sorry; I wish I could be more helpful, but I will tell you that the tool is quite WONDERFUL for what it's supposed to do. Best! Mike

No, it is a 110v. You will need a 220v to 110v converter. I bought this tool, it works amazing, I use a converter to charge it

The proxxon saw uses a transformer as well to operate. I use the NG 5/E proxxon transformer for mine. There is another weaker transformer that you can buy, but is does not have as high a rating or positive feedback. So to answer your question. If you have the saw and the transformer and can use a conversion plug at the end of the 110 plug on the transformer, you can use it in England! For expert advice you may want to contact Proxxon online and see if they make a UK transformer. I like my saw and make sure you order lots of blades! Good Luck!

I'm sure any voltage equipment less than 220V would be ok to use on the transformer....assuming the transformer can be used "up to" 220 volts. Hope this helps.

Although the adapter has a global voltage compatibility, I guess you may find the plug does not fit the electrical socket in your new house. In that case ,either You can buy a converter from US plug shape to UK plug shape, which cost less, or you can buy a transformer with EXACT the same output parameters, which cost a little more. I am lucky because socket in China is compatible with US plug:)

it depends which country you are in. we are in NZ and plugged it in to a 240v wall socket. it blew up the transformer. luckily our friend is an electrician and he put a new transformer in which could handle the voltage here. so be very careful when plugging it in :) make sure the socket is 120v max.

No, the input voltage is 12v 2a so you have to change the 220/110 to 12v(2a) transformer to make it work in both currents.

You should be able to use it with a stepdown transformer. It may even be safer to use a transformer between the 110v cutter and the 240v mains, if you are using it in a damp/wet environment.

NO! DC only. You would need a rectifier on the output of your transformer or just a DC power supply fed from your normal 120 VAC .

To charge this tool, it uses 110-120v circuit. If you have only a 240v circuit it's twice the voltage it needs and will burn it out. If you have a converter, it has to cut the voltage down to 110v. I hope this answers your question.

The one I have is a 100 - 240V 50/60Hz switching supply. So far I have only used through 110V step down transformer as have not changed the US plug yet so I can plug in to 240V direct. cheers.

Check the Fellowes site for product information. The one I recieved only has a standard US plug and operates on a 120V circuit. I do not know if it has a transformer in the motor.

Sorry, can't anywhere in the manual about UK supply. It takes a 110 volts to work
