The KPA500 was designed to run on 120V mains, Brian. It draw less current than many household vacuum cleaners.
Since 240VAC mains are common as well throughout the world, it makes sense that it was designed to work on that voltage too.

It seems the interest more is that the amp matches the K3 aesthetically than technical/safety considerations. 73 de Brian/K3KO ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
