Converting large appliances from 110v to 220v
« on: August 01, 2018, 02:01:25 PM »
Hi. We will iy”H be moving to Israel next year and have many large kitchen appliances that would be expensive to replace just because of the voltage. Individual voltage transformers are impractical. Does anyone know who in israel can change each appliance over to 220v? I am talking mixers, blenders, etc. thanks.

Anything with a motor you would might have to be concerned about the 60hz vs 50hz cycle in addition to the voltage.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

Not worth it. Just buy a large transformer, been using for a year with good results

Where are you moving to?
