The Sony Reader requires 5.2V DC to charge. It's entirely irrelevent what the mains voltage is - you need a charger whose output voltage is 5.2V and which can supply at least 2A. Actually a 5V charger works just fine.

Any charger designed for the Sony Playstation Portable (PSP) works fine with the Reader; you should be able to find a PSP charger in any game shop.
