Australia Power Plug to North America

Long story short, I ordered a X-T1 online from an Australia seller and did not think about the different power plug used until I got the product this morning.

What are my options to this? Order a new a/c power that is for North America? Or get a battery charger that plugs into the wall?

Somewhat confused with all the options I have found when I did a search online, such as converters & adaptors.

Look at the back of the charger. It should say something like 100 to 240 volts. If it says that you can just grab a new cable for a couple of bux and be good to go. i get if you look around the house you will have the cable you need.

I am guessing it looks like this:



The back something like this:

^Ding Ding Ding!

The charger should handle both voltages (I doubt Fuji will produce 2 where one is 240 only and the other 110/240). Just get the cable and you're gold.

On a related topic- go pick yourself up some Wasabis (or another reputable 3rd party brand). The charger is more compact, and you'll need 2-3 batteries for every DSLR battery you used to carry lol
