Re: [elektron] MD emergency MEX !!!

2002-04-12 by Dr. W.

Dont you guys know the voltage from power outlets is different from Europe?
Jason is right - you need a new AC adapter.  Those of you with computers
will notice the tiny red switch on the back of the power supply that changes
the voltage - unfortunately AC adapters usually dont have this feature.  See
if Elektron can mail you an American power supply (110 volt).  Im not
positive, but I think Mexico has the same power outlet voltage.
