Hi guys, I bought this pot on taobao/tmall but forgot to check the voltage... it arrived today and it says that it needs a 220v 50hz supply

I check online and Singapore is 230v 50hz

If I plug into our electricity outlet, it is ok right? Or need a transformer?

Also, can I just buy a traveler plug to plug in because the plug is different from the outlet... Thanks

Works... But hor.. u know China stuff design very cheapo

So 220v supply with almost 240v(Singapore power very power one if u really measure)

On the long run... Reliability drop

Make sure the traveler adapter is rated higher than the wattage of the appliance you use. Safety first.

Just buy the UK 3 pins plug to replace it and cut off the China plug.
