Late to the party but I have finally have been able to find a Sony G90 including the good IC421 on the YA Board from someone downsizing their home in the USA.
I am based in Sydney Australia and up till recently the prohibitive factor has been the cost and exchange rate.
Anyway, one finally came up for a great price and it has just arrived by sea freight and now the installation project starts.
This unit is a VPH-G90U and my question is for the power supply.
Is all that I need to do is swap out the current fuses (15A) being rated for 120V USA power requirements to T6.3A being the Australia supply at 240V?
Or is it more involved than that?
(Over the years I have got a lot of value from reading the posts in the forums, and now finally I get to ask a question).

That's all you need to do. Current draw is 1/2 with 240V as compared to 120V.
