Get a stepdown converter to go from 220 to 110 and all will be fine.

apparently you need 5Amps*110V= 550 Watts for a stepdown

I can confirm one of my US xbox360's has killed a 300Watt Stepdown after just 1/2 hour of gameplay.
The unit became white hot. I highly recommmend a 500Watt or more Stepdown or convert a PC PSU.

Im fairly sure that a UK powersupply would work, but I would definatly double check.

Yes a UK psu should work, but you can't just walk into a shop and buy one.


i hope they start selling replacement psus... sad.gif
