Solved! Hisense TV Voltage

[motownman69]

I am being transferred from USA to Europe soon and want to take my Hisense 49H6E 4K TV (US model) with me, as the specifications say it will work in voltage up to 240V (60hz). I know the tuner will not work in UK/EU, but I only plan to use the TV as a monitor for Blu-Rays and streaming 4K internet content. Hisense USA customer support says it will work up to 240V, as per tech specs, but they cannot say if it will work in the UK/EU/EMEA 220-240V environment. I also have a 32" Spectre that I have taken over for business presentations and it works just fine, also says 110-240V on the tech specs. Is the Hisense safe to take and use in Europe? Anyone else taken any such TVs over there? Thanks for any help and direction!

If the specs say it should work up to 240VAC is should work. If the specs don't mention frequency, then the frequency (Hz) probably doesn't matter.

I seem to remember that the UK has 50hz AC line frequency. If the TV says it only works for 60hz then I think you will have a problem. I would say check with Hisense but it's often a job getting a response from the right person at some companies
