Re: Voltage conversion on a Hafler P3000

Being in Australia, I'm wondering whether it's worth me getting a
Hafler Transnova P3000. The only question is the voltage - in
Australia, it's 240v.

How easy is it to convert this to 240v? Is it just a question of
getting a step-down transformer?

No. A step-up transformer, which will double your radiated fields.

Better bet is to replace the internal power transformer. Some gear (not
usually gear made for the US market) may have a transformer with 110 and
220/240v taps already inside.
