Yes, Its quite diffrent. You use 220 over there correct? well that comes in the form of 50 hert cycles. Most step down converters will automaticly adjust to 60hz for US products. Yoe will need one of those heavy (Like 30 kilo) type converters

So old thread. But just want to say, for a world wide travel, I often take a power converter that provides 3 AC outlets, 4 USB ports and extra 3 plug adapters. You can find power converters 110V to 230v or 220V to 110V. It is much portable to use wherever you go. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01E140XWA/
