Subject:Convert German Spec 220V Westy
From:Gord Plouffe
Date:Wed, 17 Nov 1999 19:10:23 MST

I recently purchased a 1982 Westy Diesel.  This is my first Westfalia and I
know little about the overall operation of the components of the van
(learning more as I read this list though!!).

The van was imported from Germany by the original owner.  The van is German
spec 220v.  All the manuals, warning plates etc are in German!  I noticed
that the fridge and plugins are all 220v, there is thankfully a small
briefcase size invertor for 110v power.
Is there a way to eliminate this invertor and go to just 110v?
I would have to swap the plugins etc, but what else?

Thanks in advance for the info,

Gord

82 Wesy with the "smoke screen" option
