PSP Charger

MuNKeY

I found this today in a box of junk at a thrift store I seen PSP and grabbed it and I noticed the plug is different, I know I've seen this before years ago and if I am not mistaken this was for Japan. Will I be able to use this on my psps (with the adapter of course, that I don't currently have) or can I go all mad scientist and splice a plug onto this. ...or am I SOL and out a buck I paid for it?

Whoa, for those on the vintage site sorry for the huge pic...

I'm pretty sure you can go to your local radioshack if it's still around and buy an adapter to be able to plug it into the wall - it's a common piece that you'd probably be able to find at walmart even.

Meh our local Radio Shack closed years ago, but there may still be one in the next town. Wally World is a option but rather not buy a whole pack of funky ends just for one if I can keep from it.

Thats deffo european. Eastern european to be exact two round pins. I know cause its psp-104 all the psp stuff in czech is a "4" series. Prob a czech/polish/slovak/hungarian adapter...

You could cut the end off and should see a blue and brown wire. Ive changed lots of uk stuff to euro plugs and its simply cut end off and connect the two wires onto a new plug, as its ac it really should not make a difference which way round the wires are.



However we use 240v here and irrc the us is like 120v so again shouldnt make a difference as youre going down in voltage but I really have no experience with US wiring/home electrics.



Prob better if you consult someone with us domestic electric experience though...

Well, wouldn't have thought it was European. Still odd for something like this to turn up in my neck of woods kinda wished I had dug more u telling what else interesting would turn up.
