Not being patient, I have purchased a US shipped Form1 from someone who decided they no longer needed theirs. I expect it to arrive soon and want to be ready to start printing once I open the box. I was wondering what adaptors/transformers I need to make sure the Form1 will not fry when I plug it into AUSTRALIAN mains power supply (230V, 50 Hz)? Thanks ---

Do I require a step-down transformer as well as an adapter, or will I be all good with an adapter alone? ---

My power brick says 100-240v, 50/60Hz.  Should be fine with just a plug adapter.
