I'm wondering if even though it says 230v the unit can take 120v because they claim to be universla. But before plugging it in, I wanted to get verification so that I don't damage the unit. I've looked at pictures of other sc8850s on the web and they say 100v. Would it be safe to plug it in?
as i said, different units supporting either 100v/120v or 220v, just have their input cable soldered to different pillars of the transformer.
and to make things more complicated, some units may have been modified by their owners to support different power input. for example, the SC88PRO picture that i saw was manufactured with 110v marked, but power input is resoldered to the 220v input pillar to be used in china.
so, your best solution is to get some help to find out how the input is connected to the internal voltage transformer. and if its indeed connected to 220v pillar, get a 110v to 220v transformer.
