Shipping to USA/Canada

Has anyone experience shipping from UK to USA/Canada. For instance, would there be an export tax from the UK to sell the PA1, and/or an import/customs tax at the other end. If so, does anyone know how much tax would be charged?

Thanks
sean

Probably import charges when shipping to North America. However, it really is quite impractical as the voltage in North America is 110-120, so to use a UK PA1X you would need a step down transformer for a start. However.....

I believe that ALL the PA1X has an automatic line voltage regulator

I don't believe so - I think you will need the step down transformer

Take care !!

The Voltage are going universal from "100Volt to 240Volt" no discuse. And not "Step Down" (wrong way) it must be (Step up) oops, but no needs in this case

. Look at the Technical specifications in the Big Book "Power Supply-Universal 100-240V AC power supply" that give meaning
