    how can I make work a Xbox One in a country with 220V?

    Hi guys

    I have the same problem, i got an Xbox One present from my brother, it's still on the way, but he ordered from Amazon US.

    I spoke to an Xbox Live representative and i told him i was considering (like you guys) to either :

    1) Use another plug to connect US connector and make it EU plug

    2) Buy a seperate EU power brick

    I believe in all fairness that option 2 is most recommended just to avoid certain problems (i don't know too much about convertors & stuff).

    A solution for all you guys out there, i'm about to order a seperate power brick for Xbox One which is the EU version, found this on the following link :

    dx.com/.../12v-1a-eu-plug-ac-power-adapter-for-xbox-one-black-100-240v-254881

    Looks to me like that's the one i would need. I'll order it & when i get it (along with my Xbox from Amazon US), i'll let you guys now of this worked.

    Grtz!

    Moved to the US.

    Hi all,

    I recently moved to the US to study.

    I was just wondering as I bought my Xbox over to play, made the XBL transition etc just waiting to purchase another power supply that would work in the US. But I was just thinking, could I not just keep my UK power brick and buy a US 3 pin plug that will
    go from the wall socket to the power brick, thus replacing the UK one, meaning I won't have to buy a whole new power brick, just the cable that plugs into the socket?

    I have a Falcon generation Xbox 360 in case anyone wanted to know.

    Thanks!

    Zak

    As long as you have the proper power brick you will have no problems, also you should have no problems with the TV Just remember your in the USA when setting it up, good luck.

    Adapter is burnt the first time I plug in.

    Yeah if you ended up using the power brick that came with the xbox when you bought it in the US and plugged it in while in india you would have fried your xbox one.

    The voltage in india is 220v and the voltage the US power bricks use are only 110v.

    If you used the US power brick in india this is would NOT be covered under warranty.

    Xbox 360 slim broken?!

    If you have access to one, you could try using another Power Brick.

    What makes me think Power Brick is when you said. "The xbox was accidentally unplugged and when i plugged it back in it stopped working."

    Power bricks can still light up Orange even when they are bad. So check the cord where it plugs into your console and make sure there are no bent, or broken pins.

    Good luck!
