Does anyone know whether the above consoles where ever supplied in the UK with a single phase Irem (rx85 something?) single phase rectifier just bolted into the console , or was the rectifier integrated and not remove able ?

Cheers Jon

Some reseller could have done anything. I don't believe Strong would ever put an Irem in one at their factory.

Not with an Irem I doubt, certainly not from us.

They did/could come with a Strong SMPSU, which could be work single phase on our voltage.

Thanks Pete, as I thought .

I do know that some/few Strongs had IREMs in USA. Only ways customer would agree to buy them.

I have a little more info on this , I have been told the Irem rectifier is model rx85g? Does that ring any bells ? I've never heard of it nor could I find any info on it ?
Cheers
