Correct! The voltage selector will be a godsend for me as I'm about to received all my UK keyboards at my new home in the USA. The UK uses 220v, the USA uses 110v, so it's going to be interesting getting some of my UK keyboards to work on a 110v system. I have a step up voltage converter, but I'd much rather have the keyboards run on the correct voltage straight from the mains. When I was packing my VZ-1 in the UK, I noticed the voltage selector on the base. It 110 or 220 can be selected with a flat blade screwdriver. That will be awesome just to turn that to 110v and have it run on USA mains power. Some of my older mains Casios won't be so lucky though - CT403, CT1000P, CT6000, CT7000, so hopefully they';ll work OK with the voltage converter. I also have my FZ-20M coming over, and hope that may also have a voltage selector switch (I can't remember seeing one).
Regardless, yes, my UK spec. VZ-1 has switchable voltage and runs direct from the mains.

Definitely yes, and there's even voltage selector, according to the schematics.Daniel ForroOn Apr 3, 2017, at 9:58 AM, '350ypvs@...' 350ypvs@gmail.com [CZsynth] wrote:I have a VZ-1. As Daniel correctly stated, it has an integral internal power supply. It uses a standard "kettle" type mains lead to connect to a mains power supply (i.e. 220v UK, 110v USA etc.)On 2 April 2017 at 19:39, Daniel Forró danforcz@...
