RobFurn said:You will probabelyneed an Auto Transformer of the correct VA read the back of the console it should say something like 110V 3.8A 50/60HZ think thats the spec for the US PS3
Why has he bought a US console he will only be able to play imported NTSC games and Region 1 DVDs and Region A/1 Blu-Ray Discs, however I think some of the earlier consoles alowed any Blu-ray disk to be played regardless of region
twocom said:PS3's have universal power supplies. Get rid of the US cable altogether and just use a standard kettle lead but with a 5amp fuse in it. Ignore that it says it will only take 110/120v, they do accept 240 and work perfectly fine. Google about and you will find the same info.

Actually the PS3's are completely region free for PS3 games and blu-ray discs.
