Default Will my UK Televisions work in The Cayman Islands?

Hi all

I am moving to Grand Cayman in September and I am in the process of sorting out my freight to the island.

I have got a 42" Plasma HD TV & a 22" TV both purchased in the UK.

I also have a Playstation 3 and a DVD player.

Will any of these items work on the island under the Caymans voltage? Can I get around it will travel plugs?

Just need to know because I'll sell them if not

Cheers for your help

From my understanding, it's 110 with the american plug..so you'll need a voltage converter to boost it to 220 and plug converters.

You should check to see what TV standard is in use in the Caymans as if it's NTSC then your TV may not be suitable as UK TVs use PAL.
