Domestic Electronics from China usable in Canada?

I purchased a computer speaker set here in China and although they were quite cheap I'd like to bring them back to Vancouver for use when I return. On the back of the amp it says ~220V 50HZ 110mA, the plug looks identical to the Canadian ones.

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated, TIA.

no they wont work with out a converter,


your speakers says ONLY 220 and 50hz

if it said 100~240 50hz-60hz it'll work

You need a Transformer/converter. You can buy them here in Vancouver easily. Those travelling power adapter things.
