Hi,
Can anybody help me on this one?
I bought a dewalt charger for 18volts in the states and want to use it here in the netherlands on 220. I know the easiest is using a step down transformer, but can I also take out three diodes from the bridge rectifier, changing the full bridge into a halve bride? I read it would give me halve the voltage after smoothing, but I'm not sure.
total power needed (max) is 54VA
Any help or elaboration would be appriciated. Thanks Patrick
