$99 Porter Cable deal

Re: $99 Porter Cable deal

Steve,

There wouldn't by any chance be an option to run this one on good old 220/230 volts, which is what we use in the Netherlands? I'll probably have a hard time when 110 volts is the only option.

I don't believe that there is a switch on this item to allow it to work at other voltages. I believe you would need to have a voltage regulator/adaptor. I don't know if that would be cheaper purchsed there or purchased here and mailed to you. Perhaps someone who is more familiar with the electrical issues present in Europe might chime in.

Assuming power output is more than 300 Watt, a converter would cost almost as much as the tool itself.

In that case, unfortunately we have no deal. It would already have been a a close call for me, with all the added cost (shipping cost, tax, customs fees).

Gues I'll have to keep performing my Karata Kid imitation (wax in, wax out )

Steve, I just received mine from you with the goodies you included. They were well worth the additional cost. Thanks for your professionalism and I look forward to doing business with you again.
