AW: [Doepfer_a100] 230/115V?

2011-03-18 by York Luethje

Hi Vesa,

 

If all you’re running is a suitcase you should be fine with a small step-up
converter. They’re no larger than a normal power supply. Something like this
perhaps?

Betreff: [Doepfer_a100] 230/115V?

 

  

Is there a reasonable way to have a 6u suitcase frame work with both 230 and
115 volts? IE, I want to be able to play it in Europe and the States.

From checking the previous discussions, I understand that a switching power
supply has been tested and proven problematic. But is there an actual
solution? Could two separate power supply units be installed in the
suitcase, for example? Or an external power supply? One installed for 230V
and another external?

I am based in Europe, so most of the time I'll need 230V.
Step up transformers tend to be not very portable...
