    Ahhh! Try looking at this: https://www.accessible-japan.com/voltage-japan-wheelchair-battery-chargers/ re voltage converters.

    If you can get to a large electronics store, you can possibly buy a converter (not an adapter which just changes plug type!) to change voltage. You can show them this for reference: https://amzn.to/3tJ61J4. If you do find one, see if they will let you test it at the store before buying it. It will be cheaper than a new battery charger, but still not very cheap.

    Getting in touch with Permobil via @sarahnishina or your hotel is likely the safest option (and they may be kind enough to lend it to you for your trip).
