NTSC / PAL / SECAM video region |
Every video sensor receives and relays video signals in a format
such as NTSC, PAL, and SECAM. This can be an issue when the video
device signal does not match the receiver device signal. This could
be the case in any wired or wireless security camera, sports camera,
baby monitor, car reversing camera, car video system, or standalone
video monitor.
It can also be a problem when Analog TV signals in your country
do not match the receiver formats on your TV device.
We've provided full notes about this issue here, and you can
also ask our Customer Support staff for advice about particular
products or combinations of products. |

Cell Phone / Mobile Phone GSM region |
For normal GSM phones, there are four different "bands"- 850, 900,
1800, and 1900 MHz Not all countries have all these GSM bands
supported by the mobile telecom services.
Not all mobile phones have all GSM bands.
We've provided full notes about Mobile Phone Compatibility here, and you can
also ask our Customer Support staff for advice about particular cell phones / countries.

DVD Player Region |
For reasons of distribution control, commercial movie DVDs are sold
encoded in particular "regions" e.g. Region 1 for USA, Region 2 for
Europe etc. For reasons of supreme coolness, Chinavasion's
Portable DVD Players and Car DVD Players are all region free
meaning they play all regions. Therefore this is one localization
issue you don't need to worry about - all your DVDs will play back
fine. |

Electrical Socket Type / Voltage |
Half the world uses 230/240V electricity, and the other half uses
110V Thankfully, all Chinavasion products using chargers or
adapters are compatible with both 230/240V and 110V unless indicated
otherwise.
Every country seems to have its own weird configuration of mains
electrical socket types.
You can specify the plug type you require in the Chinavasion online
checkout.
All Chinavasion products in stock in our warehouse are by default
in EU plug type format. Orders sent with other plug type choices
will be given a travel plug adapter per plug for no additional
charge.
In order sizes over 50pcs of any item, we will attempt to obtain
new stock from the factory to ensure the adapter type matches your
chosen plug type without the need for plug travel adapters.
