Can I use this cable on my playstation 2?

I have a cable rated for 7A, 125V. Can I plug it into my SCPH-39001 Playstation 2 or will it explode?

Welcome to the forums, newcomer!

Where are you located and mind sharing what happened to the original power cable for the PS2? Images for the cable checks out to be in accordance with the input for the console in question but it's good to have the same cable as the one that came in with the console, if not brands, it's good to be eclectically the same.

You should be good to go.

I bought it on the US, and lost the cable when I last moved. I tested to see if it would light up a few weeks ago but didn't have the courage to try and boot it. Thanks for the reply!

Are you still in the US or a country that has 110V power?! Otherwise you are going to have a bad time...

Exactly what I was about to add to the conversation. The power cable/cord mentioned above should not be used to connect to anything but 110/120v power sources, never to 220/240v.

It's not just the cable, if the PS2 is 110V and has no switch for 220V it's gonna blow.

Absolutely! The smell of melted plastic and tears of sadness will follow. Hopefully, no fire.
