Does anyone know whether the tough system radio automatically detects and changes between 120v and 230/240v? A lot of electronic do automatically detect a different voltage input and change but i don’t want to test it in case i blow it up
no automatic detection !
internal power, I think is 12V
the supplied charger transforms it down to that voltage
but there are physicly three “power supplies”
I have all thre
a) USA plug
B) UK three pin plug
3) EU (German ) 2 pin plug
cheers

So does it have an external transformer connected to the power chord? If so where did you buy them?

I would not call it external tranformer, that is missleading
same priciple as chargers or otheres
the plug is country specific, 110V plug, internally ttransforms down to the required volage
voltage
sometimes it is 12v, 9,6v or 6v

There is an transformer on the power cord but you should have received it with the radio
