Hey, I havent been on for a while casue im in america for the summer and have been away form my fish, but im comming home at the end of the month, and I was wondering is there any point while I am here to buy any Heaters, Filters, or lights with the voltage situation?
Im already getting a tetratec external from zooplus.ie but i was considering the Rena smart heater?
I will be buying all my non electrical accessories while im here anyway.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Cillian, unless you have a good transformer forget buying electrical, but i agree some great dry goods products over there.

Hi Cillian,

Yes, beware... The US operate at 110V and we do at 220V. As a consequence, for any electrical equipment bought 'over there' you need a transformer. Not quite handy and. in addition, operating a transformer to power your equipment would add to your power consumption ...

Enjoy your summer in the States!
