Multi-System LED TV – Page 6

FAQs

Can I use a 220V TV in the United States?

Yes. All our multi-system TVs are dual voltage, running on 110–120V here in the US and 220–240V overseas. No converter, transformer, or electrician needed; the TV handles it automatically.

The only thing you might need is an inexpensive plug adapter, since many of our TVs come with a European or UK-style plug.

Are your multi-system TVs dual voltage?

Yes, every TV we carry is dual voltage and runs on 110–240V. That means the same TV works while you're still in the US and after you arrive overseas, with no extra equipment beyond a plug adapter.

Will your TVs work with local cable and satellite overseas?

Yes. Our TVs are PAL, NTSC, and SECAM compatible (the broadcast standards used around the world) so they display correctly whether you're connecting local cable, a satellite receiver, or a set-top box.

A regular US TV only supports NTSC and often shows a scrambled or unsupported picture overseas.

Do you ship multi-system TVs internationally?

We ship within the US, where TVs go out double-boxed with reinforced edges and padding for safe arrival. From there, most customers take the TV as part of a household move, place it in a shipping container, or arrange their own freight forwarder.

What sizes and brands of multi-system TVs do you carry?

We carry multi-system TVs from 32 inches up to 85 inches. Samsung is our most popular brand by a wide margin, and we also stock some other reputable brands like LG and Sharp, with options across LED, QLED, and Samsung's Frame TV.

Are your multi-system TVs smart TVs with streaming apps?

Most are smart TVs with apps like Netflix and YouTube built in. One thing worth knowing: some streaming services are region-locked, so the content library can look different depending on which country you're in. That's a licensing issue on the streaming side, not a limitation of the TV.

Should I test the TV before shipping it overseas?

Yes, we always recommend it. Plug it in, turn it on, and check the picture while it's still in the US. Our domestic shipments are insured, but that coverage doesn't follow the TV once it's reshipped abroad, so it's far better to catch anything before it leaves the country.

Do I need a converter or transformer for these TVs?

No. Because they're dual voltage, there's no need for a converter or transformer anywhere in the world. Depending on the plug type and your outlet, you may just need a simple plug adapter.

Should I bring my current US TV or buy a multi-system one?

If your current TV is dual voltage and you'll only use streaming, it may be fine. But if you want to connect to local cable or satellite at your destination, a proper multi-system TV is the better choice.

Many customers try to make a US TV work overseas and end up buying from us anyway, just months later, and with more hassle in between.
