Re: [xl7] voltage conversion

2005-01-21 by José Sáez

Yeah, the XL7 can be run at 240 (if i'm right that's what you guys at the UK use); we here at Chile use 220 and i had no problem with my XL7.

But....

It seems that the transformer generates more heat while converting from 220 to 110. So the unit get's a couple of Cº hotter in 220V countries. Using an external voltage adaptor drives the heat problem away from the XL7 and (we suppose) that should add to stability and working life.

  Subject: [xl7] voltage conversion


  I brought a xl-7 over from the states and was
  wondering if I could just stick a kettle lead(uk plug)
  in the back of it.  The xl-7 says on the back "100-240
  VAC  50/60 hz 1a"  so it seems like I would be fine
  and not have to purchase a voltage converter.  But I
  want to make sure.  Thanks for any help, can't wait to
  try this thing out!!
