Is the charger for this unit. able to support 230Volts

The charger states on it 110v only. I tried a step down transformer from 230 -> 110v and the charger would not work with this. In the end just plugged the charger direct into 230v and it seems to work fine (for around 4 months). I suspect the 110v and the 230v chargers that hitachi offers are exactly the same. Hope this helps.

No. The charger for this drill is Model UC18YRSL. Its specs are: Single phase, AC 120 V 60 Hz.

No, I bought a cheap 230V -> 110V converter, which is small enough to fit in the box of this drill.There are two versions of this charger one 110V and one 230V.

No, it has a standard 120 VAC plug. You can't plug it into a 230 VAC outlet.

It is for the US market...120 volts unless you can get the switchable, dual voltage sold in Europe. If it's not advertised,...assume it is 120 volts that is needed for supplying power. The internal low voltage power should be DC, so, you could always get a transformer to step your 220/230 volt source down to 120 volts. I assume you live in an area that has 220/230 volt service at the wall outlets. Good luck, Hugo!

The existing charger should work. Look at the charger. They list what volt charging it supports.

It's 110 only as far as I know and seen. I believe you'd have to get an adapter to use it with 230, but then you could use it with 230.

Yes, the one it shipped with works only on 110v. A separate adapter will have to be used for 230v.

Yes, providing you use an adapter because the charger has two prongs, standard American. The back of the charger says the input AC voltage is 100 to 240 VAC.

Hi,Thanks for asking! If you have a "System 4 or 5" the AC adapter requires the use of a standard 230 V AC source.

No. You should not plug it into 230...unless the item has a range of 110v-230v. You would need an adaptor for it to run correctly,

Jonathan, We use the tool on 115 volt/60 hz.electrical service. Generally, if a product is not labeled for 230 volt, it should not be used with that voltage and in all likelihood will become overheated, fail, melt, explode .... Not a good idea. Our tool has a standard 2 pronged electrical plug for use in a 115 volt outlet and will not fit into a 230 volt outlet.

Good tools...Fast charger...within a half hour it works off of 120v.... plug it in any normal outlet...IF.. there is a way to go 230v... I don't know how... not sure I would want to try...

No. The charger only works on 110 to 130 volt a/c power. It does not support 220 volt.

Who the heck gave you that idea! The charger functions on 220-230 volts AC, which is standard U.S. electrical tension! So once again, the charger/transformer IS compatible with your electricity.

I would like to know this too. I live in Europe and I need to use it with 230 Voltage.

Yes, it can work on the power source 100-240V so 230 to 110 Volt is no problem. External Power Supply is 12V 2A

Yes it is. Its power adapter is rated as 110-240v and I'm personally using it at 230V.

I bought this charger in july this year in the US, i use in in the netherlands with a 230 V power outlet, it had a 110V USB charger included, so when you replace the USB charger for a local one, it works perfectly.Greeting Johan
