I have a PAL Wii and a JPN Wii. Can I use the power adapter from my PAL Wii on my JPN one?

Any info?

Thanks.
 
as long that the output is 12volts 3.7A your all good.

i use the same power adapter on all of my wii's (US wii and japan wii)

i even used the 12volts of a PC ATX power supply to power my wii, when i blew the power adapter by accidentally plugging a 110v power supply to a 220v wall socket
 
?? Why cant I get that to work?? ive been trying to get my wii to work off a extra pc power supply but it doesnt want to? just stays with a red light, and ive checked the voltage and its right on

I set up a PSU to turn on when it is plugged in (ground the green cable with a black on the 20/24 pin connector) then used it to power a hard drive. Every hard drive I used that with burnt out after a while though...

Ummm, no you aren't. Even going by what you just said.
Fair play on the PC PSU game, thats cool, but as for using a JAP power lead on a PAL wii...
If you plug a 110v PSU into a 230v wall socket, its gonna go bang

it think he knew how to choose the right PSU to use with both wiis
using the other one with either wii would be bad so in fact using the same is the best option
but i'd rather use sneek anyway


btw for the PC PSU guy
check that you use a 12V line not a -12V line
they give MUCH less power
