Hi John,
While this will definitely be a heavier option, one I know for sure are
these Telex models which you can get brand new with a zoom lens. I really
like them, they're nice and gentle and they have a frequency option
(military projector).
Also - as they use older lamps, I presume you'll need a pricier electric
converter too that can handle the wattage. Again, probably not the best
option, but if you're in a bind.

If you use a BH 500-series projector on 50 Hz power, you need a different
pulley to get it to run on speed. ICECO in Miami should have the pulley
available. But yes, they will run much hotter, in part because the motors
are kind of undersized.
The older 300-series projectors use universal

Yes, I will say that there are a lot of really dreadful Chinese
autotransformer converters out there... most of them are actually
only good for about half the current on the nameplate before the
regulation goes to hell.

Cool, glad I could help!
One note that I didn't think of when I bought an electric converter for an
