    Step Down Transformer for US Xbox

    Hi

    Does anyone know where to get a SMALL step down transformer (150W or VA) suitable for a US Xbox, in the UK?

    (220v - 110v)

    The only place seems to be Maplins at ?20 for a bulk of a thing...

    Thanks,
    John.

    try googling, there are quite a few UK retailers, otherwise play-asia and lik-sang sell em but not sure about shipping costs etc.

      When I first got my original US Xbox I tried one of the nice neat tiny step downs I use for my GC, Dreamcast, Multi-Mega, Saturn, and PC Engine.

      No chance.

      The Xbox is that big for a reason, it needs monster power. The only step down I ever found to power it was a breezeblock (well, almost) sized affair from Maplin.

      Feed the beast, it's hungry.

        You'd probably be better buying a uk power board from ebay and sticking that in your Xbox, it would work out about the same price and means you don't need to mess with a stepdown
