Re: Power Convertor Units

I don't think you'll have much luck with those.

The VK62A remote will probably work, but I suspect it operates on a
different frequency to the one used here, and may not be legal.

The VR30A might only work with an NTSC video signal - you may find you get
nothing or maybe a monochrome picture out the other end.

The TM751 and LM465 won't work at all.  Not only are they designed to work
on a different voltage, but on a 60Hz rather than the 50Hz supply we have
here.  Even if that wasn't a problem, connecting them to the UK mains via a
step-down transformer would filter out the 120kHz X10 signal from the
powerline.
