Voltage 220V, 8A fused.
^^^^^^^^^^^^ This is something of a show-stopper for those of us in the
US...
=======================
With 117 V being the normal nominal domestic voltage , I believe many
premises in the US have nominal 234 V outlets as well , hence 220V wouldn't
be a problem.........let alone be a 'show stopper'

OK, I should have written it's a show-stopper for *many* people in the US.
