US console in UK is a power / plug adapter needed?

[Emerald]

Hi all, Just got back from the US with my new box and now wonder if I need a psu / transforner or will just a normal travel plug adapter do the job. Didn't want to fire it up without checking first and couldn't find this info covered in the forum though I am sure it must be so sorry if the answer to this is obvious and has been covered.

Regards, Emerald

Yes you need a transformer unless you already have a European power brick in which you can just swap it around.

Thanks for your response i ordered a step down converter from maplin as it is half the price of a Uk ms power brick after finally finding an old relevanty post on this. I bought the premium system at target for $399 with a game.
