    Australian Electrical Question

    what is the power difference from the us to you guys. can you use one of our light bulbs on your power. i know the electronics are different and require adapters but i'm not sure about bulbs


    thanks

    reason is my wife is starting to sell her ebay lamps to people down there and one person said she had to get an adapter that was pretty costly.

    we use 240v. Lamps should be fine. If not they could just buy a replacement bulb if they are the normal bayonnet or edison screw type fittings.
    Never let the truth get in the way of a good story

    also note the voltage rating for the wiring, plugs and switches for the lamps. They also use the plug with the slanted prongs / \ .
