Offical Razer Charger Question

[iStasis]

I live in the UK and currently using a the offical razer charger (that plugs into the UK socket) going away next month to the US and wondered if i would need to pickup the US version of the adapter. I was never a fan of using travel plug like devices and now that my travel kit is all USBC i was just thinking its best to use the right plug for the main device which would be the phone.

I have the RavPower 26800mah power bank so can always output power to other devices if needed such as bluetooth headphones as it has USBC PC in/out and standard USB connections which is more than i need

£40 is a bit of a price but didnt want to buy cheap "travel like chargers" also because the US power runs at 120v and UK runs at 240v i believe as the phones quick charge shouldnt make a difference as the lower power in the US is still way more than the requirements for quickcharge meaning it will charge at the same speed.

...would it be cheaper just buy a new power cord??? Mine just uses the standard 3 OOO plug. I have a spare US cord from a previous Toshiba Laptop that works fine on my UK power adapter.

Look on the plug to see whether it states "100-240V, 50/60 Hz" , it will work fine with an adapter.

The Razer charger is a 100-240v (50hz-60hz) adapter, so even though it only has UK prongs on it, the internals of it are capable of running on the US power grid.

All you should need is a standard UK>US adapter, something like this.

Hell you might be able to find one in poundland or the US store equivalent.

I'm sure your question has been answered, but I have the US version in Korea. The charger works fine on 220v with a 110 to 220 plug adapter. Also, I think I saw mention above of a power bank. I have a GIGASTONE model PB-7824, 24000mAH. It has USB-C and it supports fast charge.
