It depends. Check the input voltage, if its 110 - 230V then yes just a travel converter type thing. If it's only 110V then you need a transformer, which is bigger, heavier, and more expensive.
Travel converters aren't super safe. You're not allowed to sell new electronics in NZ that rely on them.
If it's the XL Sport then it uses a USB charger. You can use any wall charger you get from a local retailer.
I had a Fugoo here and just handed it over to @dratsab last week.

Might be easiest if you can post a link to the item that you purchased from amazon?
They are all the same. I linked to Amazon from your previous post.
The Fugoo Style XL product page is here. It comes with a USB adapter. You only need a local USB adapter.

The manual (http://www.fugoo.com/template/images/downloads/Fugoo-XL-Speaker-User-Manual.pdf) states that it's "Charged by 19VDC international AC adapter (included)" - so given that it states it's an international AC adapter, you should be able to use a travel adaptor to charge.
The website images do appear to imply that its a USB power brick?
foxy38: Ok so Will need a travel adapter then..asked a.question on Fugoo fb site they replied can.only be charged via mains.power so can't b charged via usb??
