I purchased a DS Lite in the US on holiday. I am now having problems charging it. I have used both the US charger and an adaptor and a UK charger from another DS Lite - nothing - no lights and no charge. I have also swopped batteries between the UK and the US consoles and again - nothing. What can be done to enable the US console to be charged in the UK. Gerry
The problem all along were the chargers. For some reason both the UK & US Chargers were faulty. I took the chance and bought a new UK charger and everything is okay

Sounds like you've blown a fuse inside the ds itself. Check on the underside of your console and check if it says "5.2v in" adjacent to your charger port if it does then the uk charger is safe to use. But the fact remains you may of blown a fuse. There are two fuses in the ds and are very small they can be repaired easily if you have any soldering skills.

I have got a ds from the states and wondered if its possible to charge it with a uk charger. On the underside of console it says 5.2v 2.3w, battery:li-on (usg-003) 3.7v, adapter input : 5.2v 450mA. Would it damage console if tried to charge it and if it did would i need a new console? thanks
