    I have a US 110v kitchen aid stand mixer which I use with a transformer. I'd like to replace the motor with a 220v version. Any ideas where I might get one?

    Thx

    id imagine there are electronics in there too. dunno if it's just a case of swapping motors.

    If the motor is controlled by a PCM type of electronic controller, it may actually be a low voltage motor. The electronic controller may already be capable of operating on any voltage between 100-240v AC. I don't know the model, so it may be a simple AC motor with resistance type of speed control.

    Have you tries googling the model number to find an online manual with the specifications to see what input voltages it will accept.

    as already said you will need to know the correct model number and change any other voltage dependent components.
