Using Pal Power Supply Unit On Ntsc\u Console.

Yup, that's most likely why it's external. This way you only have to modify the psu for each country.

PAL and NTSC are TV standards not power standards, your better using the terms European/North American when talking about powerr.

Now I am done nitpicking your 100% fine use to any 360 power block from any region on a 360 from a different region.

Its not the input voltage that matters it whats output in to the 360.

I did this with a European 360 over the states without any issue.

It is if you have a US PSU in EUR, or a EUR PSU in the US. wink.gif


@ Stratege - If you have a 220v PSU and are in the US it's not going to work unless you plug it into a 220v outlet. If you're in EUR or any other place that uses 220v you're fine. Every 360 uses the same voltage that the PSU outputs, as No_Name stated, but you DO have to watch where you plug the thing up and that the PSU is for that voltage. wink.gif

True RDC

Yes you dont plug 110V devices in to a 240V outles unless you want to see it smoke smile.gif

But as Stratege stated he wanted to use a 240V brick with a US 360 which wont be a problem.

Yep should work fine as long as the plugs fit into both, your 360 and the plug in the wall tongue.gif
