Q: QuestionDoes this device work also with 220V?

Asked 6 years ago by Chris.

This question was asked about the related product: Waterpik - Ultra Water Flosser - Blue

• A:Answer If you use a voltage converter (220V->110V) it will work. 220V current is usually 50Hz not 60Hz but that won't make any difference to the functionality of the Waterpik, although it might be relevant for highly sophisticated electronic equipment.
