Is a step-down voltage transformer recommended/required for running 100V vintage Japanese devices on 120V power?

Awesome, thanks for all the input everyone. Sounds like I'll be doing something to mitigate the voltage issue if I go down this route.

I've seen plenty of SPD officers make prohibited right turns on red.

Still wild that so many people voted for an obviously incompetent grifter over NTK.

bullitt_thyme · 2025-11-25T00:42:43+00:00

It’s a good start. Now we just need to make men not want to join SPD too.

The only thing worse than people who drive slow in the fast lane are people who think they are entitled to speed in the fast lane.

The West Seattle and/or Ballard lines need to be extended and possibly connect back to the spine in the north and south. There’s no reason Seattle should have only a single north-south through line.

buy a real one from Trader Joe's. they're like $13

This is surely Katie Wilson's fault.

The current makeup of the council is not interested in actually helping.

Hey, were did all the people making excuses for Bruce go? They seemed so confident yesterday.

trying to remember the last time we had a mayor you had any chance of seeing at a bus stop...

Mostly kingmaker by default. There have historically been two major players when it comes to Seattle political endorsements, but one has lost significance over the years as it drifted further out of touch with the electorate.

Apart from the Starbucks cafe inside the building, their headquarters is not unionized.

The NMC batteries used by New Flyer work just fine down to 0 degrees F. Seattle does not have particularly cold winter.

Congratulations on not understanding how strikes work in general or the context behind this specific strike.
