Using Your Electric Toothbrush Abroad
Is a electric toothbrush dual voltage?
Electric toothbrush charging bases are almost always dual-voltage (100–240V). A plug adapter is enough; the inductive base draws very little power.
How to read your electric toothbrush's voltage label
- Find the small print on the device, plug, or power brick.
- Read the INPUT line.
- "100–240V" means dual voltage (safe worldwide); a single value like "120V" means single voltage.
Common labels: 100–240V 50/60Hz
