[sdiy] mine transformer question....

[jhaible]

>strange list, this is synth-diy, i'm asking as a starter if it is possible
(internally) to put a >220v transformer in a synth that has 110v and if
there are other electronics involved, no >answers at all to mine question,

The answer is: yes. If you find a transformer that is identical to the
original one,
but with a 220V (or better 230V) winding instead. Your primary fuse should
then
have approx. 1/2 of the originale Ampere rating.
If you only find a _similar_ transformer, a lot of other things must be
taken into
consideration.
Having said this, working on safety critical parts (such as power
transformers)
should only be done if you really feel qualified to to this.


>and on a topic that seems not to fit here, that mailbombing thing, and that
gets a lot of >reaction.....is this a networking list???
strangeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

The listmembers have been very generous in answering my off topic question.
I appreciate this (asking OT is the exception, not the rule), and I don't
feel
bad about it, as I have occasionally answered some on-topic questions in
the past. (;->)

Best Regards, and welcome to the list,
