Hi guys. I'm stationed in Germany right now, and Germany runs on 110v power. My question is, if I buy a german power supply, will my american made machines run fine? I have Forgiven machines, and they were expensive. I don't want to waste them. Thanks!

uk is 220 and i think europe is the same, ur power supply should be selectable between 110 and 220, as long as it's set to ur countries (220 i believe) then ur machines should be fine. as far as im aware that is the power running into the supply, the power coming out is still the same where ever you are as most power supplies will only go up to 18v output with machines running on between 6v and 12v.
i may be wrong in which case someone will correct me. And im sure there are Europeans here running U.S machines with no problem. |
