Global Voltage Compatibility Guide for Electric Kettles
Our K·KOU electric kettles are designed for 220V / 50Hz voltage and are equipped with a Type I plug.
Customers in regions with different plug types or voltage standards may need a suitable plug adapter or voltage converter. If you’re unsure, feel free to contact us — we’re happy to help you choose safely.
✅ Good News
If your country uses 220–240V/50Hz AC, you can use our kettle directly.
⚠️ Important
If your country/region uses 100–127V (for example: USA, Canada, Japan, Mexico, Taiwan), you must use a step-up transformer.
We recommend:
- Input: 110V / 120V
- Output: 220V
- Power: at least 1500W (2000W preferred)
- Type: step-up transformer
