Mr.Defiant

American going to Brazil question?

I will be going to Brazil for a few months and i know they don't have the same power outlets as Americans but was wondering if my electronics will be able to be plugged in anyway or will i need a special connector if so anyone know where i can buy one before i leave?

Brazil's electric current varies from 100 to 240 volts, and can vary from 50 to 60Hz.

Check your electronics and make sure they can handle the full range of voltage (100V-240V). The transformer for most laptops and other electronic's can usually handle the 240 voltage, but you should check each one to be sure. The transformer should be clearly labeled with the input requirements.

Brazilian plugs usually have three prongs: two round and one flat. Adapters for converting North American plugs are cheap and are widely available. If you have an electronic device that can only handle 120V or less, you will probably want to buy a transformer just in case.

110 volts Rio de Janeiro / 220 volts Sao Paulo.

Well there are some outlets that instead of being strait prongs they are actually round kind of like the European outlets. You might want to buy one but i honestly do not think it is necessary because you can easily find one that is like ours here. The newer places are mostly like in the states. The older places have a little of both to be honest with you. I am Brasilian and go there every year for about 2-3 months so yea i think you can take my word for it.
