RBS40V US version in UK

Hi guys I purchased a RBS40V on the US website and brought it over here to the UK, I read multiple things online saying the US power plug is dual volatage but I just want to be sure.

Will a simple us to uk adapter suffice or what should I do?

    I have used a bunch of different US adapters and none one has gone bang.

     

    My experience is that adapters made for the US work fine in the UK. They may not say so, but in reality they are dual voltage and will adapt accordingly.

    We have no idea what you read. It may well be another message like this one. Sadly, if you don't trust those messages, this one won't help either. Your only guarantee is the label on the thing.
