220 down to 110v

[Budsy]

Hi I’ve acquired a 24volt 3000 watt hybrid inverter charger but it is 220v output and I’m in Canada. Is it possible to get a 220 to 110 v unit and is it worth it?
Thanks

All you need is a transformer to convert 220 to 110v. Transformers are fairly inexpensive and efficient. There are lots on amazon, but I can't vouch for the quality of those.

It can be done but it can also create issues due to Euro/Asia 230vAC 50hz single phase is a different critter than North American 120/240vAC 60hz split phase. In my opinion it is not worth the headache unless you thoroughly understand the process. So No it is not worth it.

Thare is a solution but than again the price its do high that you can go for a new one
Just sell the old one

The fact that you had to ask, tells me that it's not going to be worth it for you.
It takes a higher level skill set to do it correctly.
Sorry, if this isn't what you had hoped to hear. But it's better to find out before you spend more money.

Are you sure the inverter is 60 Hz?

Probably need 5KVA transformer. Here is one for $630.00

Call to verify.

There are plenty of utube experts that show how to convert over. Maybe one of those might get you somewhere. Or you might get electrocuted. I spent $20 with the state and got my electricians license, so I am good to go.

Thanks that’s what I thought

you are right I know nothing but that’s also what I paid for it so I thought I would ask the experts. Anyway hopefully I’ll find a smarter person that wants to buy it.
Thanks
