SDS-V 115V to 230V conversion ?

SDS-V 115V to 230V conversion ?

2011-05-03 by xylofoam

Hi all,
Is there anyone out there who knows how to perform a 115-to-230V conversion of an SDS-V ? (Is there a direct replacement for the original US transformer?)

Cheers
// Lars

Sure it can be done. I replaced the transformer in one of my SDS-V\ufffds and in 
one 2 SDS-7\ufffds

Check the schematics and order one from a retailer in your country.

In this case I think "your country" is the same as yours and mine WT. 
Elfa.se is probably a good source to start with.

A swedish hexagonbanging drummers are named Lars... or? :D

Perhaps.......it would be easier to recommend something if the OP stated 
where he is from.

Correctemundo... Sweden it is :-)

I'm currently browsing through ELFA's online catalog in search for a 230V replacement transformer...
