110v and 220v
I am trying to make my FW able to be used with both 110V for here in the states and have a transfer switch for running of 220V in Australia via a step down transformer? Is this possible or not? Frank...

Just curious. Are you seriously going to pay the cost of transport to get your 5th all the way from the US to Australia ... and then perhaps back again? Wow! Once there your trailer will be "backward", as the entry door(s) will be on the wrong side of the trailer. And what are you going to tow with? - your own truck, built to US standards? Are you prepared to tow on the "wrong" side of the road, sitting in the "wrong" side of the truck?
Electrical standard in North America is 120 vac @ 60 Hs, in Australia it's 230 vac @ 50 Hz - and certainly a 50 Hz frequency would present some issues with a rig designed to run @ 60 Hz.

Why bother? :h
