Anyone have any idea how much wattage bb actually uses from the wall? Looking to buy the uk version but i live in the usa. so power is diff and would require a voltage step up transformer.
If anyone knows please drop a message here. thanks
I"m not sure who you are referring to as a website. but if you purchase direct from the manufacturer they come in two types of voltage. All you have to do is tell them your country and they know which one to send.

Seri,
Ask Mark Barker at www.gismostore.com - there's an email address for him on there. When you buy it you select your country so he probably knows what to send.
I know they sell both versions. however there is a used one available and that is why i need to know what wattage they use. so i can one either get an adapter or maybe modify it so it will work in the us. :P if you know please let me know what it is. thanks
I'm not sure this can help you but US and Canada is 110 volt (some states are 120 volt). The UK and other countries use 220 volt. From my experiences, I only bought a conversion plug. When the appliance is 220 volt I'll buy a 110 v converter. It's safer (highly recommend) to plug it to a surge protector instead of plugging directly into the wall outlet. That is the cheapest way. Also the BB machine's electric wire (plug) is detachable (is not like a blow dryer wire that you can not detach it) so you definitely can replace the plug to use it in US if that's a UK version. I don't think you have to be too concern about the wattage but if you want you can get a step up/down power converter/transformer for about $30
