how do you find out how many volts it is putting out? what kind of tester is used? and how do you go about doing it? thanks

if you are buying a bed and it says 220 volt and then gives some info like 218-230 in its info, what does this all mean..do you need something to even it to 220??????? thanks

at both of our salons the voltage is usually between 206 - 210, and our Ergoline 300's did work, but we went ahead and put a buck booster on one as a test and the UV output jumped almost 25%, so we had buck boosters put on all of them. Always learning something new.

Buy a booster quickly. We were told by the electrician at buildout that our outlets were all within range and within a month of opening I had 2 beds down due to a relay gone bad and a wire melted, it can cause the beds to have hot spots. Its expensive to put on all the beds, but well worth the money.
