I used to work in an electronics store and we used to sell these ready
I used to work in an electronics store and we sold transformers equiped to
be plugged into the wall.  I think the brand name was Franzus.  They made
them for different wattages for foreign power.  Actually they were mainly
made for travel, like hair dryers, razors, etc.  I think they would power
most of your stuff, except maybe your stereo amp and synth amp - depending
how powerful.  As far as 50hz is concerned, any computer monitor or tv
made for 60hz won't work.

this was mainly a test.
my video is screwing up.
