Hello Patrick and Shannon.  Long time fan, love the new show.  

My family will be moving to England for a few years and I need some help.  I have some electronics that will only run on 110 so I need a quality power converter.  Any suggestions?  Also, will running an electronics off of a converter continuously cause problems?  Is there a UPS that inputs at 220 but outputs at 110?  I was thinking of daisy chaining the electronics to a UPS to a converter.  Is this an overkill?

Thanks,

Drew S from Newport News, VA
