Hey everyone,
I'm getting ready to move from the states to Japan in the coming months. I know that the power there is 100 volt/ 60 hertz. For small electronics I know this typically is not a big deal,but I'm more concerned about all my PC's and my home theater equipment. I've been looking into getting a pure sinewave UPS, but will I need to buy a voltage converter as well to plug my UPS into, or can I get a UPS that can up the 100 volts to 120 volts and provide protection from power spikes etc... I'm very unfamiliar with these pieces of equipment, but I want to protect what I have. Thanks.
