Well, we'll see.

In the interest of making everything the same voltage, and ease of location in the future, I've opted to purchase the 100W 110v PSU.

The seller gave me a $75 refund, but that was mainly because his advertisement didn't match the machine with regard to the up/down buttons on the side. They were missing, and I'd wanted both manual and automatic control, so now I have two empty sockets on the side. I think it ought to be possible to get this working somehow, even if I have to come up with a PCB to do it.

So, given he'd already refunded me something from the sale, I wasn't too hopeful of a further refund for the 220v thing, and indeed I got back:

>Yeah the machine is 220V and need to use with the transformer,We have put transformer with the package ,The chiller is 110V ,Can directly use in your city.The reason why we manufacture the machine to 220V is due to the 220V machine always more stable quality than the 110V,All the machine we send to US stock is like this ,Hope you can accept .It will not influence usage but the quality is more good.

And after responding to that:

>All the machine in US is like this ,The machine 220V with transformer and chiller 110V,We have no manufacture 110V machine now,We have ever manufacture 110V machine several years ago .But 110V machine's Hz always meet problem when buyer use on US 110V voltage so we changed the voltage .All the buyer purchase our machine can use well with the 220V machine with transformer.If you don't like our transformer can you kindly purchase a good one ?

It seems unlikely to me that there's no such thing as a decent 110v laser PSU... It also seems frankly unlikely that a cheap-as-chips buzzing-angrily 110->220v transformer (that has already given me a mild shock^) is going to be a better power source than a native 110v laser PSU but hey. The new PSU looks* like a drop-in replacement. Again, we'll see.

In the grand scheme of things, I have to take the view that:

  • The machine is actually pretty nice, and for the cost, it's pretty amazing
  • The machine cost actually included all the shipping - no hidden lift-gate fees or anything like that.
  • Even with purchasing the new PSU and air-blower (the supplied one was also 220v), I'm still coming out ahead of importing from China. The cost there was an additional $600 by the time all the fees were accounted for, and this is only $200 - not to mention that the ebay supplier's shipment arrived a lot faster.

    So I'm a bit disappointed it didn't go completely smoothly, but I'm overall pretty happy with how smooth it did go. I expected a hiccup or two. Hopefully that's them dealt with.

    [*] The shock came after I'd switched everything off, so I'm assuming that it was just capacitor discharge, but it still made me jump. In any event, I won't be using it in future.
