Re: 110v drill
you will just need it re-corded as the us 110v plugs are different.
thanks

It'll run 20% faster for the same setting but other than that, it should work ok with a new plug.
defo bringing it over, already mixes fantastic.

I brought mine with me when I came here in the 70s, and it worked fine. I still have it, but I hardly ever use it, as I use cordless ones now. Frequency here is 60 Hz.
