thanks everybody for the help, but it think it won`t be possible for me to buy a volcano, the power here is 110v and 220v at 60hz and in uk and europe it is 50hz.

I`m going to travel to uk so if I bring a vaporizer with me a won`t have to pay a 80% tax. And I don`t think there is a device to change power from 50hz to 60hz
thanks any way

As another forum visitor responded, get it on line. I got one for my home 115 60hz US and it's great. It's not a Volcano, but it was 1/2 the price. It's basically a precision glass bowl on top of a cylinder that contains a heating element and a fan. You just set the temp and wait for the green light. It came with two means of inhaling. One is a mouth valve release balloon that you can fill using a precision high tempered glass attachment. It also come with a glass mouthpiece on the end of a long surgical tube on a precision high tempered glass attachment. This is what I use.

You can use an AC converter like this one

This one is US$17 for 100 watts, which is more than enough for this vaporizor.

Hi, 220v is no problem my house has bouth 110 and 220v the problem is the frequency ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utility_frequency ) and this can`t be changed by a AC converter like ed the head sugested because it can only change the power from 110 to 220 or 220 to 110 and europe uses 220v/50hz and here is 220v/60hz

I see.

I've asked if this or other units perform a 60-60 hz and 50-60 Hz conversions and if I get a reply back I will post it.

Reading your link, I believe the conversion device must also convert the Hz back and forth between 50 and 60 as required. It would have to in order to function as advertised.

Best of luck in either event.

100W Deluxe Voltage Converter with Two Outets 220V<->110V

We have a 220 60 Hz. 220 feed to convert to 110 60 hz. , is this within the specs of this unit?

I could be way off but I thought the hz difference only affected things where timing is an issue like turntables. I dont know how much it would affect a vaporizer.
