Understand Voltage Incompatibility

it's christy idaho payer here on paint live tv today got a topic how to make our uh three by four sander work in europe so somebody called our store paint live supply co wanted a purchase um a three by four uh unita xan sander but he's over in europe and specifically ireland and wanted to know if there's any way to get this thing to work over in ireland and specifically um we'll be talking about over in europe or even other parts of the country where um this sander may not work because this sander as it sits will not work over in ireland but i'm going to show you how you can simply and easily make it work over in europe so if you want to know how to make a 3x4 center work in europe stay tuned for this video [Applause] [Music] all right now i'm going to be talking about our three by four sander this is the ekkasan 3x4 sander we also at paylife supply co we sell the 3x4 we sell the five inch and we sell the six inch and all sanders are the same these sanders are a 110 volt sander and they run in on a 110 volt system that plugs in with a plug just like this in the united states the motor inside this and the other two sanders is a 350 watt brushless motor now can you use this over in europe what you're going to see is you if you took this over to europe this won't even plug into any of the wall sockets what you're going to see is a plug-in that's going to look similar to this or possibly i've seen over in europe because i've traveled internationally you'll see a plug-in like this or even maybe something else but you won't even be able to plug this into the wall because um this doesn't have the right plug-in but the wall sockets over there in europe are 230 volts and this is 110 volt so it's a mismatch of voltage now i'm not electrician you don't know all the science behind electrical issues but
