kiwipete Posted January 9, 2011 #1 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Hi all you Dawn cruisers. Please can you advise me of the power plugs and voltage on the Dawn. Is it still fitted with the N American sockets at 110 volts or, now it is based in Australia, has it been changed to the Aus / NZ sockets operating at 230 volts. Thanks for your help.

Billy and Charlie's Mum Posted January 9, 2011 #2 Share Posted January 9, 2011 It's been changed to Aussie Points. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul929207 Posted January 9, 2011 #3 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Are there any US 110? Or were they all converted to 230? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coo359a2 Posted January 9, 2011 #4 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Would like to know too. Have a CPAP, netbook, hair dryer and phone charger that will need to be plugged in. Does this go for the Sun Princess too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flipper133 Posted January 10, 2011 #5 Share Posted January 10, 2011 We were on Sun Princess in April 2009.. I used to say last year but cant do that anymoe:mad: We were in an aft Mini Suite and although the ship has been Australianised. in fact only the main power outlet in the general area had an OZ plug. Others in the desk area and the bedroom were still US plugs. They were used to power the lamps etc. Not sure about the voltage..but obviously the OZ plug was 220v Should not be too much of an issue as most portable devices (with transformers) can handle voltage variations between 110 -240 cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uralba Posted November 24, 2013 #6 Share Posted November 24, 2013 G'day flipper Now I am confused .... I thought Australian power was 240 v AC? Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nervouslyexcited Posted November 24, 2013 #7 Share Posted November 24, 2013 Is the plug in the bathroom US or Au - for personal hairdryer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare 1025cruise Posted November 24, 2013 #8 Share Posted November 24, 2013 Just an FYI, this thread is over 3 years old. The plug in the bathroom is rated for an electric shaver only. No hairdryers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beg3yrs Posted November 24, 2013 #9 Share Posted November 24, 2013 (edited) Just got off the Dawn on November 15. We had a mini-suite. The only Aussie plug (angled blades and 220V) was over the desk in the entry. The plugs by the desk with the hair dryer as well as the plugs for the TVs were US and 110V. The bathroom plug was dual 110V and 220V but low current, good for shavers and recharging toothbrushes. The lights were plugged in with European style (two round pins and 220V) plugs.

Nervouslyexcited Posted November 24, 2013 #10 Share Posted November 24, 2013 Thank you. Didn't notice the dates of the previous 5 comments. We also have booked a mini-suite so good to know at least one outlet is OK for Au voltage/plug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uralba Posted November 26, 2013 #11 Share Posted November 26, 2013 (edited) G'day I received an email response today from Princess Cruises: Thank you for your email. To clarify the situation "your cabin will have an Australian power point within it". Do have a fantastic time onboard Dawn Princess! Kindest regards, Princess Cruises So I guess that sorts out that issue: No need for any transformers, but with one power point and numerous phones, cameras etc to charge, perhaps a surge safe power board!
