My answer would be "no", however an adventurous soul has plugged the charger directly into 240v and it worked. I PERSONALLY WOULDN'T RECOMMEND THIS UNTIL VOLTAGES HAVE BEEN CONFIRMED ON THE OUTPUT.

I use a 220->110V step down transformer - I think it cost around £8

Well usually chargers say 100-240V... in that case it should be fine. Anyway, please give me a day or two more to think about it.

Cheers

this one says 100V.

I've had sigmarions since 2005 and never tried it on 230V.

PS: I would pick it up if I didn't already have 2 spares

I tested a 100v japanese adapter in the UK on 240v (std one that came with sig3) and it worked fine.

Volt meter confirmed correct voltage at sig end.

Thanks

Still for sale... It's the PDA itself, a good battery, charger and stylus.

I will take £75 for it, plus P&P at cost. I'm not going any lower than that

Still by far and away my favourite windows CE device, and still has a very useful place in the gadget armory!
