    Hardware NTSC/PAL Charger Compatibility

    The guy sent a charger with the 3DS. The charger he sent plugs into US walls. This charger works fine. It says: Input: 100V-220V 50/60 Hz 12VA Output: DC4.6V 900mA It says (JPN) at the top. I think it's a Japanese adapter. Which is weird... I thought they had different wall plugs...

    Hardware NTSC/PAL Charger Compatibility

    To expand on your point, you're saying that the output is the same for ALL chargers? So long as I buy the official charger for the region I'm in, I'll be able to charge any 3DS with it? Pardon me if I misunderstand. Edit: Examples in case this is unclear. If I live in the US, I buy a US...

    Hardware NTSC/PAL Charger Compatibility

    Right. I understand PAL and NTSC are for software, I was just using it to distinguish between chargers as well. I suppose I could've said 'european' or 'american' instead. Alright, guys, it sounds like the American charger and the European charger both push out the same exact amount of energy...

    Hardware NTSC/PAL Charger Compatibility

    Understood! Thanks! When the PAL 3DS comes in the mail, I'll check the charger to make sure the output is the same as the output on the US charger. If it is, I'll use the US charger. If it isn't, I'll go buy a converter from radioshack. Something interesting: On the top of the american 3ds...

    Hardware NTSC/PAL Charger Compatibility

    Oh, it's the output voltage that's of concern? Then what exactly is the input voltage? Even more specifics to work with PsyBlade's post: NTSC: Input: AC110V-120V 60Hz 7W Output: DC4.6V 900mA [hr]Posts merged But the chargers aren't the same. And the wall plugs and voltage requirements of...

    Hardware NTSC/PAL Charger Compatibility

    Alright, so after careful inspection, I've discovered specifics. Remember, I live in the US. The NTSC charger lists the input voltage as 110v. Output voltage is 4.6v. From what I've read online, the PAL charger list the input voltage as 220v. Knowing that information, is it definitely...

    Hardware NTSC/PAL Charger Compatibility

    Fantasitic news, guys! Thank you all. I'd imagine all 3DS' are made the same, which would probably mean they'd demand the same voltage... -if it needs an adapter, I'll be sure to come by and ask you guys as to which one to buy. (Hopefully it won't!) Wouldn't want to burn out the 3DS, Kayou...

    Hardware NTSC/PAL Charger Compatibility

    Neither 3DS' have converters. Sorry- let me specify everything to make sure: NTSC 3DS I bought new, in store. It comes with a dock and charger that plugs into USA wall plugs. PAL 3DS I bought used. It comes with a European wall plug, but no dock. I can't plug this into a USA wall, because the...

    Hardware NTSC/PAL Charger Compatibility

    The PAL 3DS comes with a wall charger, but I think Europe has different wall prongs. Where should I buy a converter? And what voltage should it be...? Thanks!

    Hardware NTSC/PAL Charger Compatibility

    I own a NTSC 3DS. Soon, I will own a PAL 3DS. Will I be able to charge the PAL 3DS on the NTSC 3DS dock/charger? Will I need to buy an adapter? If so, where do I get one for >$20? Thanks!
