power in japan

[randomlinh]

traveling to japan, and of course I overlooked the fact they use 100v outlets. most of what i'm brining says input of 100-120, but some just say 120. Would I still be able to use it, or would i need an adapter as it wouldn't provide enough juice?

Thanks

well, the only adapters they have are 220->120.... the guy at rat shack was clueless to what i was talking about. oh well, worst comes to worse, i have no music for my flight back.

Just use the 100v!

It really depends on what and where you will be living. If by chance you or someone is in the military and if you live on base then you will not need it. If you reside off the base in the community then you will need it. Also then comes sthe fact what type of connection you will use over there, like dsl, adsl or netwave.

If you look at the AC/DC adapters for most stuffs, you don't need to worry about 100v... I used all my stuff without a problem. Didn't even need physical adapters for anything.

EDIT: Yesh, that incrudes dee 120V tings.

100v should work fine for most things
