220v, most UK electrical items work fine, just need to change the plug to two pin type or use an adaptor.

Hi Mushtaq,
Is that a true 220v or an average voltage. As back in the UK most people think it is 240v when actualy it is realy 230v which then can affect your wattage if you re-wire an appliance.
Thanks

Does it make a difference, it would be a slight difference in wattage?

When it does work, it varies between 160 and 300 volts depending how pi**ed off the man in charge of all the currents at Tedas is !

Just pop into a local electrical shop and buy some adaptors - or better still, bring some continental adaptors with you.

The adaptors are very cheap to buy over here. Just a couple of YTL each.
