Power Adapter for UK Xbox one now in the USA

dan3549 · Jan 21, 2016

Hello, apologies if this has been covered before (please direct me to where!) - I have a UK Xbox one, I now live in the USA and want to keep using my current machine. I have bought a couple of power adapters from Amazon that seem to work for a while but
soon just break - does anyone have a definitive product they could recommend that ideally I won't have to replace even so often? Thanks in advance for any help!

UK Xbox one S in North America

I am looking at upgrading to the Xbox one S but I will be moving to the USA for a year. My original Xbox one is from the USA and I have had no problems using this in the UK due to getting a UK adapter, however it looks like the one S plugs directly into
the socket so will a UK xbox one S be able to work in the USA?

XBOX Power Supply Adapter

I bought my Xbox in USA. However, I have shifted to India now. And i have lost the power supply adapter for my xbox. Can I buy an adapter here at India and use it with the XBox that I purchased at USA.

Never use 3rd party supplies on your console as they can damage the unit. Go to this site and request a power adapter http://support.xbox.com/en-US/

Ok thanks. Just to check will a US power cord work with a European Xbox? Sorry if that's a dumb question.

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.

The 100+ Arcade Games are included in "DLC Content" (Downloadable Content), they are tied to the gamertag, and that XBOX.

If you plan on using the same XBOX 360 in the UK you will need a new power supply as well since US / UK have different power voltages and the games you get from the UK are in a different format as well.

USA = 120 V and UK = 230 V, they are not compatible with each other so you'd need to get yourself a new power supply if you intend on using the same XBOX 360.

Games made in the USA (and compatible with USA consoles - NTSC Format), Games sold in the UK (and compatible with UK consoles - PAL Format)

So, please be mindful of that

UK english or USA english?

The UK console power brick isn't rated for operation in Japan. The USA brick should function as it's spec'ed to work with both of Japan's power standards (100v, 50hz or 60hz).
