PC PSUs can run on 240V. If yours can't then switching to a 240V PSU will cost about $30. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Power-Supply-for-DELL-OptiPlex-GX50-GX60-GX150-GX240-GX260-GX270-Mini-Tower-PC/272979240383?hash=item3f8ed4a5bf:g:PlYAAOSwyWZZRsmf Another alternative is to use a PicoPSU (they live in the actual ATX power socket) and run the PC from 12V. (Or get a 12V / 24V input motherboard). The same is true of monitors, many are auto-swiching or have a selector on the back. (Most switchmode PSUs don't care, they will accept AC or DC from 100V to 300V) -- atp "A motorcycle is a bicycle with a pandemonium attachment and is designed for the especial use of mechanical geniuses, daredevils and lunatics." — George Fitch, Atlanta Constitution Newspaper, 1916 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
