Re: US - UK Transformer

[steve.cooper@xxxxxxx]

More than enough you might even want to go for something smaller. the
current will be 54.5mA not 545ma

6 watt / 100v = 0.0545 -> 55mA

I have ordered a US motor that is rated at 110v AC and 6 Watts. 
Just
wanted
to get a sanity check from the group.  I am planning on using a step
down
transformer from Maplin's.  I think I only need the YM50E one which
has a
maximum 830mA rating. On the basis that from the above info the US
motor
would draw 545mA.  Does this leave enough margin, or should I play
safe and
go for the 2A transformer ??

Thanks,

Mark
