360 power brick

Yes. Power bricks are forward-compatible. The oldest bricks can be used to power the final generation of original 360 console.



360 S uses a new power brick design. It's not directly backwards compatible with original 360 systems.

All power bricks are compatible with all xbox 360s. Just buy a new power brick from the country you live in.

For a better understanding: What version of the 360 do you own (with or without power brick ) ?

Does it work normal after the second shutdown ?

If it has a power brick try to blew the dust out of the power brick - don't be surprised, that could be a lot ! ^^

I suspect the script reader in the call center is translating "adapter" as the AC power cord that goes from the wall to the power brick. If so, it's true that changing the AC cord will do nothing for you.



A UK 360, in the USA, will work with a USA power brick. As you stated, the input power to the 360 is in DC. That does not change. What changes is the AC voltage/frequency range that the power brick accepts.

[quote user="Mc Knives"]I have a JPN xbox and live in Ireland/ Co Dublin. I'm wondering do I need a power converter or will my euro power brick work with that?[/quote]If you have a European power brick, that will work. The accepted AC input on the power
brick varies, but the DC output to the consoles is the same.

Or can I use the JPN power supply?

Heh, no, if you plug a JPN power brick into Irish mains power, you'll at best blow the fuse in the brick. At worst, you'll blow up the power brick.

My
friend on live has a JPN 360 and uses his cables from his uk 360.

The AV port, HDMI port, Ethernet, USB, Kinect, and optical ports are not region-specific. Doesn't matter what region those cables are from. It's the power brick and the cable from the
brick to the wall that are region-specific.
