Would it be cost effective to purchase a voltage converter and use a
product made for the US market? A quick search shows 230V/110V-5000 watt
converters running around $100 US.



Unless it's DC, you run up against the 50Hz business as well. Believe 60 to
50 is the acceptable direction, though.



Unless your trying to run a clock the frequency difference shouldn't
matter (although a motor would run slower). The converters are designed
for international travelers, allowing them to use their US made products
overseas.
