My view is that running UK stuff off a US 220V supply
is OK for testing,
but I'd not run it like that permanently.
Are you sure the Master Compact can't be converted
for 110V mains. I
don't have that machine, but other models of BBC and Master have PSUs
that can be converted by a link on the PSU PCB which, as usual, converts
the input stage between a bridge rectifier and a voltage doubler.

No, I wasn't aware that they could be converted. Is that something that I
could do myself, or have done by an electrician? Does that apply to the Cub
monitor and cassette player as well?
Also, can the power cord be switched?
