Client needs a TV for a 220V country; do you guys know of any 55"-65" models with dual voltage power supplies? My LG OLED is 50/60Hz but only 110V; small transformer would be an option. Some of the Sonys had external power bricks as well; don't remember if they were dual voltage. Every Samsung or LG I've connected a PC to in the last few years has had 1080p at 50Hz and 29/30 available so the video shouldn't be a problem as long as it is over HDMI.

Don’t most, if not all, modern TVs have a switching power supply that has a wide range of voltage inputs?

Take this 55 LG, it can accept 100 to 240VAC 50-60Hz. [Link: lg.com]

Can’t they buy one in that country?

Right. Unless this is a third world country (many are 220v 50Hz) buying “local” is the way to go. Is there really that much margin in the tv you’re hoping for to make this even worth considering dealing with from abroad?

I had a client a long time ago that lived in China for a decade, so everything he owned was 220. When GM moved him back to the states, none of his electronics would work. He just bought converters for his PC, TV's, etc.

The converters will step up or down.

Warranties don't cross borders.

Is it necessary to pay any duties or other fees when moving personal electronics from one country to another? It sure is necessary to pay for the cubic feet of stuff, and sometimes pay extra for the shape, of something you move internationally!

What is so whiz-bang special about the particular product you're talking about that it's not worth having a new one with guaranteed the right power supply, and even a new warranty, in the new location?

The only person I know who insisted on using her 220V-only European product here in the US also did not believe a trip to her site to evaluate her situation and decide how to solve her A/V problems was nothing she needed to pay for because "I didn't really do anything."

That would be the time to ask:

-Is gasoline free?
-Is there any other cost involved in owning, maintaining and driving the vehicle I use?
-Does my employer pay me for my time, labor and expertise?
-Does my employer incur other costs pertaining to my being employed?
-Will my anger management treatment, due to dumbf&cks like you, be completely covered by the insurance company?

Thank you, I check the LG 2018 UHD models and they all have 110-240 50/60Hz power supplies. The OLED line is 110V 50/60Hz.

I am not actually getting involved in this; one of the contractors I work with needs one for a client of his that is running some kind of school or a mission in Africa.
