Hi there,
Going on a 2 week hoilday soon so im loading up my psp with films and music, I have 2 batteries which i will charge but im not sure if this will last for the long flights, Are there international chargers available or should i just wait until i am there and buy a cheap US one if i see it?

Cheers
Andy
 
Isn't the US plug socket the same as Europe? the two pin type. If it is, you could just pick up a UK > 2 pin adaptor for a couple of quid :)

Errr, no.

You will need to pick up a adaptor like this:



Argos sell them, I'll find the page.

Item 4 on page 302 in Argos. :)

Yeah silly me, i posted befor looking at the uk charger, it ranges from 100-240v and 50/60Hz So all i need is a good old travel plug. Cheers

That would be fine. I took my PSP to the US last year and used one of these to charge it and i had no problems, but understandably the battery life wasnt as long as it was when i charged it in the UK but it was still decent.

Why would the battery life be less due to charging it in the US? Do you belive because the voltage is lower you get less electricity or something hehe :)
