With which voltage does the sharpens work? Can it be used with 220 volts current?

I believe you could if you have a converter, however my experience in using a converter is not as good performance of the product and potential shortened life of the product. However, this is an AMAZING pencil sharpener and has been the best I've ever owned!

The sharpener does not have a 110/220 switch. It just plugs into a 110 outlet. You could probably use an independent 220 to 110 converter.

Yes, it work with 220v. But after 3 month of using it is broken and no spare parts are available from vendor. This is mass problem.

I doubt it will work on 220 v. Very few appliances/tv's etc sold in the US can operate on 220 volts. Charles Goeking answered on October 5, 2012

I can't answer about 220. It worked fine in 110 and didn't draw especially heavily. Works great.

Dear Connirae, To answer your question YES. It only work with 110 current. If you try it on any other current, you would damaged the device. One sure and or possible way to use it a a Voltage that for example 220 - 230 current, is to get a converter that will convert Up the 110 to 220 -230 voltage. I was surprise that Sony could produce a such a good Device for 110 voltage alone and not even make it clear to prospective customers. That is all for now, otherwise, the Device is very very good. Hope my response is clear enough. Regards.

I am not sure. The power draw is nowhere on it. Probably call worksharp support at (800) 547-0222. This sharpener is excellent.

Unfortunately it does not work with 220 v, you would have to buy the converter. Thank you, SotoDeals LLC

No, this one works on US 120v AC current. You would have to find one specifically for 220v which most of the rest of the world runs on... though there are a few exceptions depending on where you are going.

I own this wonderful machine and believe it to be the best way to sharpen your knives for the money. On the bottom of the sharpener it says 120v-ac 60hz and 1.5A. Hope this helps!

Hi Federico, This Nightlight will work with 120 volts. You do not want to use it with 220 volts.

No, this model is rated for 120v, 60Hz only. The X-ACTO SharpX 1771 uses an external power supply that can operate from 100-240 volts and 50/60Hz, however, it would require a plug adapter and it is for standard-size pencils only. For multi-size pencils, X-ACTO makes a European version of the School Pro, item 1672, which will work in Spain.

I am not sure if it works works with 220 V but if you call the Avendt customer support they are super helpful and will answer your question am I suppose if you use a converter then it will work

Mine operates on 110v. I have seen many reviews about wattage and volts and the mathematical relationship. All I know this thing works. It's somewhat loud but it grinds meat at an affordable price. Again, it grinds meat!

yes. i use it to sharpen axes and picks and it works fine. If you have a bunch blades to sharpen you will need extra battery.

Since the electric voltage in Australia is 230V 50Hz (alternating current), you will need a transformer (also called converter) to transform the voltage from your power outlet (230V) into the voltage your machine uses (110V in this case). I have purchased this sharpener for use with 230V in Uruguay and use it with a transformer (converter) without any trouble. Works just fine.

It is US current 120 volt. It would take a transformer to use outside the US would be my guess for I did not see any kind of voltage selector on the tool.

Can't answer for voltage except that if it were, you would need special plugs. Lack of thosewould preclude use of 220V.H. Schulte
