Differing voltages and sockets can all cause confusion when planning on staying in another country especially if you've never been there before. This page has been specifically written to stop visitors needing to worry if they'll be able to power the Beats Pill 2 when going to Uzbekistan.This page contains a step by step guide demonstrating what you'll need to supply power to your Beats Pill 2 when you're travelling to Uzbekistan by using the standard types I or C Uzbekistani 220 volt 50Hz wall outlets. When you are visiting Uzbekistan from a different country check that your Beats Pill 2 can accept a 240 volt supply. If the Beats Pill 2 originated in a country which uses a lower voltage such as 110 volts ensure that the Beats Pill 2 is dual voltage (marked with a 100-240 volt notation) otherwise you may need to use an additional power converter to prevent the device from being damaged whilst powering it. If you intend on visiting a city such as Tashkent or Namangan we suggest referring to the wikipedia.org page about Uzbekistan [1] for further information on travelling to the area.

These instructions show you how to connect to Beats Pill 2.0 speakers to your Uzbekistani power outlet. Note that these instructions refer to the Beats Pill 2.0 and not the original Beats Pill first generation, please visit the Beats page on WikiConnections.org for the full range of Beats bluetooth speakers. Before you connect Beats Pill 2.0 speakers to anything we recommend downloading the latest Beats Pill 2.0 firmware from the official Beats Pill support site [2] using the Beats update tool.
