  • PlayStation 3 Slim Teardown

    Quote from Fameleaf:

    Yes it is indeed a universal Powersupply. Picked the 250GB version from Amazon USA. It works perfectly in India. All you need to do is to change the power cable.

    In India, you can ask for a good taperecorder cable in any electronics shop. This cable will do the job.

    MODEL # I use is CECH-2001B.

    Additional ref:

    http://www.blu-ray.com/news/?id=3326 shows the PSU model number (EADP-220BB)

    The above PSU is certified as 100-240 V ac by Underwriters Lab (UL).

  • PlayStation 3 Slim Teardown

    Quote from Schmendrik:

    Now there's a new PlayStation 3 Slim with a 250GB hard drive. I know you've done the 120GB teardown, and found that it has a universal power supply. Does this hold true for the new 250GB? I work for Uncle Sam overseas and want to ensure it'll work if I plug it into the wall as is. Sure, I could use a step-down transformer, which would change the voltage from 220-240v to 110v, but it would do nothing to step-up the 50Hz current coming out of the wall to the 60Hz one in the U.S... and that could spell disaster for anything with a disk drive.

    According to the PlayStation official website: http://playstation.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/...

    250GB (CECH-2001B) one also has a universal power supply. Had no issues connecting it to 240 volts in India. One has to use a Indian cable (tape recorder cable or a sony cybershot camera ac cable etc o Indian make).
