Mule required (someone to bring something down to PDC)

[cormacsg]

I'm looking for someone that is coming to PDC in the next few weeks that could bring me down a voltage converter for the shop. I will be getting a piece of equipment for the shop that uses 240V. I haven't been able to find one large enough at Steren or RadioShack. I can order it online and have it shipped to your home or work. any extra luggage weight required i'll gladly pay.

´regular 110´ one side of the plug is hot...one side is not.

´220´both sides are hot. You can run a cuircut that is hot on both sides. 110 + 110 = 220.

Most any electrician should be able to do it.

just wanted to update saying that we had the electrician in and had a separate plug installed back to the electrical panel. cost us close to $700 for the labour and supplies.
