Re: S822 power requirements -- MIDRANGE-L

Adding the breaker isn't the problem, it's opening up walls to run the
wiring that's a problem.

It is easy to get 22o volts if you have a pair of free spaces in your

Yep, it's 220V.

I bought a British power plug and a step up converter for mine.

It will boot to ASMI on 110V, but will throw an error code.

That all said, I do need to sell it - I can't really power it, I don't
have a dedicated circuit to give it. I didn't know it needed 220V when
I bought it.

If anyone is interested in an S822 with 1TB of RAM, please feel free
to email me. I'm not sure if it's an S822 or S822L, but I can find
out. I bought it to run Linux, since I have 7.3 running on an
8202-E4B.
