Using a 220v version LR in the USA?
Hello,
Does anyone have a 220v version LR in the US? Would you get better performance with the 220 version using something like this?

Just curious if it would work. I have heard the 220v version may have better heat performance, recovery time? Thanks.

Reiss will know more.
To me it seems wise that if you want 230V then hire a company that is qualified to install that socket into your kitchen.
Thanks, That would be too costly to add in a 220v socket and not worth the small gain in performance.
there is no significant difference in the warm up time because this is almost entirely a function of the length of time it takes the thermosiphon to warm up the group, rather than anything related to the power of the element
if you try and use any espresso machine for a water heater the performance suffers, which is why dedicated water heaters are sold
running equipment through transformers would be regarded as a short term solution if you asked most electrical engineers i think; there are conversion losses and i think most people would regard it as an 'ugly' solution
kind regards
