Hi there,

I was wondering whether or not I can directly plug either AB or WL units into wall outlets in the countries that run 220-240V.

Thanks.

240V ABs are still available on special order, but global distribution is very limited.

I've got regular ABs and WL (x800, x1600). So they won't work with 240V?

No. They would have to be converted by our factory. Not sure of the charge for this. WLs cannot be converted. Einstein is the real solution for this as converted ABs can no longer function at 120VAC.

AB's can be converted to 220V, within thier 2 year warranty period. The cost is $55, including shipping within the U.S.

Thank you. I will be more interested in Einstein unit for its global plug-n-play ability.
