Brought a step down transformer locally. Came to less than $350 including postage Great piece of gear Now I wonder how I got along without it! OK, just to clarify that I'm not ripping anyone off, I purchased mine via RS Components for $490+GST and the additional stand on top of that.I thought $400 was a fair price given the little to no use its had.Sheesh....So am I now supposed to knock a further $100?? FFS.....Sorry, I was not having a go at you, I was just pointing out to the person who regretted missing out that there are other options available. If i was to do a lot of 'off-site' work I would prefer a 240V model
