Is this charger based on a DC switching circuit or a step-down transformer circuit?

I am not 100% sure but I think this is a "switching" charger. Reason being is that it is pretty light and doesn't seem to have a transformer inside of it. You can also hear a high pitched noise when it runs sometime, which I think is indicative of a switching design.

The transformer (charger) for this unit is multi voltage 100 -240V and everywhere in between.

The output of this (electronic) transformer is 11.7VAC (AC!), not DC. That being said, most low voltage DC switches will function OK with when used with low voltage AC. "jimyastic" makes a good point about circuit protection, however I would assume if this device conforms to required UL standards (UL approved?) then it's behaviour during use and when it fails has been satisfactorily addressed and shouldn't be of concern.

Yes it state's DC 4.2 V+/- 0.5 V DC500 mA ; on the charger but I personally have not tested .

No this charger is 110V only. Poor support. Better chargers on the market. I do not recommend.

NO THIS IS A 2100mA - INPUT(12V-24V) OUTPUT DC 5.0 V +/- 5% - this is the information on the label on the charger - you would have thought that CrazyOnDigital would have had this information - hope this helps.

I've run two different US dewalt chargers in Germany on a 200 watt transformer outputting 110v/50Hz power for the past 4 years. Both work fine as they are converting that AC power to DC which, being "Direct" and not "Alternating" current, the Hz does not matter. Save your $$$ and buy a 15$ transformer.

these slide battery units are more popular here now i managed to buy a 240v version of charger on ebay alternatively you can use a 110v transformer like this http://www.amazon.co.uk/240v-110v-Step-Down-Transformer/dp/B002SIVUJM/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid;=1384970686&sr;=8-2&keywords;=110v+transformers

I'm assuming that by AC charger, you are referring to the transformer. If so, you need a transformer that the output is 12V and 1.0Amp. The trick is the adapter that plugs in to the base charger. My advise it to purchase a Maha PowerEx MH-C401FS4AA27 - Battery charger - battery - rechargeable - AA x 4 - 2700 mAh. You will also get the DC and AC adapters. The difference in the price is just a few dollars.

Yes, it is a 120vac to 24vac stepdown transformer. I just used the old one that I already had.

The charger comes with an interchangeable universal voltage adapter which can slide out and be replaced by a regional adaptor. You will need to purchase the regional slider separately,

Yes, BUT, you must change the chargers to 220v ac 6v DC output OR buy step down transformers (50 watt minimum). You can purchase them on Amazon cheap.

Warning! I am NOT an electrical engineer, however the instructions state that "The power supply charging unit is designed to operate from 100-240 Volts, 50/60 Hz AC mains supply."Also "Check that the voltage marked on the rating plate located on the power adapter is the same as your mainsupply." Here at my place in DC the things work great.

It is the 110v but the charger has nothing to do with the problem. It is the drill motor which is to weak and the armature of the motor flew apart.

No , I just check the nameplate it listed only for 120v ac. To use it with 220 you would need a stepdown transformer (from 220v to 120v) then you could plug this in the 120 plug on the transformer. Depends on how much you need this charger as I would think the price of a transformer would be at least half of the charger. Hope this helps. Also if you do get the stepdown transformer it needs to at least match this load (.9A at 120v ac--again base of the name plate, so you would only need a small one)

Indirectly. Using a transformer (110v to 220v) would work with this charger.

The charger is 110-240v so you only need a p&#322;ug adapter - no step-down transformer needed
