[Elecraft] Duratech TS1400 Soldering Station

Tue Jan 6 18:07:01 2004

Thanks for this info Tom.

I missed it initially, BUT... the Duratech T/C station which we've been 
discussing appears to be 220 VAC only! Didn't see any reference to it being 
available for 120VAC applications.

This may be a limiting factor for some potential customers.
