Well aren't there converter that allow you to use UK powered devices on a US wall plug?

[motorollin]

Yes you could use an inverter which would take a 110v suppply from a US outlet and supply 220v. Then you could connect a UK Amiga PSU to the 220v supply.

Will I have any issues with a PAL motherboard.  I'm never going to connect it to a TV (I don't think).  Probably going to track down a 1084 Commodore monitor so...

iv added a rocker switch to my a1200 desktop.

one wire goes to earth ( inside the a1200 ) & a single wire comes out & goes to the power on ( green wire )..

this is great as i can reset/turn on my a1200 without breaking my back..

Hmmm I'm not sure to be honest. I don't know anything about the 1084. A google search may reveal whether it can display pal screenmodes. Is there a reason you're using a PAL Amiga? Why not NTSC?

I may be able to get one on the cheap.  So that may be how I'm going to do it.

The two problems I have are:

What monitor to get (no 'new' VGA monitor supports 15khz.)

Where to get a god damn 110v power supply.

Grrrr.

I've had a look on eBay and can't find any 110v PSUs. Your best bet would probably be to get an inverter from RS or a local hardware store, and then you can use any 220v PSU.

Also, I've discovered that 1084s come in PAL and NTSC flavours, so you would need to get the correct one for your Amiga. The cheaper alternative would be to use a TV. The best, but probably most expensive option is to get a scandoubler and use a VGA monitor.
