correct me if i am wrong but isnt japan 110 volts not 240?

Plug a multi meter in and see. Even if it's 110V a lot of our appliances have a switch on them somewhere that allows them to run on 110V.

I vaguely recall flicking thru the list of optional bits for the Stagea in FAST and an inverter was one of the options. The outlet I think was shown as somewhere in the centre console.

The ouput voltage will be somewhere between 100 - 120V @ 60Hz.

A lot of electronic gear will accept 100 - 240V inputs, so if you want to run something in there check the spec label on the device for the allowable input voltage range.

[mcnamg]

[burkey22]

You have a Stagea site? What is the address?

[mcnamg]

mcnamg - I am part of the way through setting up the SAU stagea info section - if you want to merge these 2 send me an email. maybe if we set up an sau one you could admin it? It would be like stagea.skylinesaustralia.com or something.

Christian, is StageasAustralia.com taken? If not, would this cost money to get the doamin name registered? (Not too sure of this stuff myself, as I've never even bothered to use the allocated space given by my ISP, let alone set up a whole separate site.)

Hey Nick.

Stageasaustralia.com IS taken - i have emailed the contact about it. I have, however, registered stageasaustralia.net, cefirosaustralia.com & .net - they just point here at the moment.

[mcnamg]

Hehehehe. It's not you burkey22, is it?

If not, I'll bet there's a good chance that they'll try and skin you for everything they can get so you can use it too...

Oh well, them's the breaks, hey? At least you got the .net one

[burkey22]

No. Why would I have it?

[GoldZilla]

Sorry burkey22, I meant to say mcnamg, because he said he's building a Stagea site, but seeing as he already said it's probably an importer, which pretty much rules him out too!

Seems I jumped the gun there and didn't read the previous posts properly. :slap:
