    Hey guys,

    I might be going back to my home country in a while and there I have a 220v power supply as standard. Is there an adapter that you guys have used in 220v countries that works with the NDS lite and where can I get it inside the US if possible.

    Thankyou

    The charger I got with my NDSL was rated for 110-240V AC. That means it will work with both 110 and 220V, so long as the pins are compatible. Pin adapters are easily available.
    You may want to look at your charger.

    You can also get original nintendo and third party chargers from play asia or dealextreme.

    if you go to like radio shack or best buy or any of those stores, they should have power converters.

    i also think a power converter is the best option.

    if you have a PC and dont mind using it to charge the DS, usb charging cables are safe and the current and voltage rating are almost exactly the same as the regular charger.

    only downside to usb is that your computer must be on >.<

    Well, a lot of people have them on for 24hrs so it doesnt' really bother them ;) I keep mine on around 15 hrs a day XD

    Anyways, if you decide to get a USB charging cable, http://www.emvee.ca/ has them for $4.99, and they're Canadian I believe, not Hong Kong company.
