Playstation 2 j*p import ?

Question

will i need a step down converter to use a j*p slim line ps2 or is it a case of just using a uk ps2 adapter cos the slim line ps2 use them ac adapters and only use like 8.5 volts

Answer 1

UK has 220V, Japan has 110V. You need a converter, get a good one, branded, don't buy cheap ones.

Answer 2

As it's a slim ps2 you can just use an ac adapter from a UK ps2.  Unless it is the latest one SCPH-90000 from november 2007 onwards the psu was incorporated into the console so you would need a step down transformer.

If it was an old bulky ps2 you would need a step down transformer.

Answer 3

Most Probally Yes
