[Elecraft] OT: Hakko and Icom PS wired for 220VAC

[G. Beat]

Julius -

In order to support both global voltages 100/120/220/240 - an appliance's 
transformer requires multiple primaries or voltage specific taps.

For the Hakko soldering station you can start with the Hakko USA web site, 
found here:
http://www.hakkousa.com/2006/default_1.asp?Assistant=Dinky

Which Hakko model number ??
This is the model 936-12

For the Model 936-12, the replacement part is Part No: B2228, TRANSFORMER 
for 936 model
You can contact Hakko USA via toll-free telephone call:  1-800-88-HAKKO 
(42556)

They can advise best method for receiving this part (direct, distributor, 
dealer).

For the Icom power supply, the specific manuals can be found at the Icom 
Global Support web site (Japan)

BTW, this is the advantage of Hakko US, over the past couple of years - 
better web site and ability to purchase ANY individual part of current 
production models!!

Someone I know has several items from a stay in Hong
Kong wired for 220. One is a Hakko Soldering station,
the other is an Icom Power Supply. I don't have the
model numbers.

Can they be rewired internally for 110 service? I
suspect the Icom can, if it's anything like Yaesu
supplies.

Thanks in advance for any help,

Julius
