Reply:The versions of the Powermax65/85 that are required for the U.K. are certified CE, the USA versions are CSA certified. They are different power supplies internally. The US units actually have a slightly higher suggested list price, although there seem to be more online sellers with discounted prices.The big issue is with warranty coverage....if you purchase a CSA unit for use in a region of the world that requires CE, then warranty and parts will have to come the country of origin.It is hard to find "used" Powermax65/85 systems....they have been in heavy demand since there introduction about 18 months ago, with Hypertherm's manufacturing barely keeping up with the demand. Not many owners are ready to part with them at this time!To find local Hypertherm dealers...go to www.hypertherm.com , click on "where to buy".Jim Colt Originally Posted by noneHiI live in the UK and Im looking for a Hypertherm Powermax 65 or 85 cutter.
