Elmo, Yep that's the one I want 110v as well . I might order it from slingers , I normally use my local dealer but I get fed up with their attitude sometimes. I asked about the free blade deal and they didn't know anything about it and proceeded to say "oh it will probably cost us money these deals festool keep doing end up costing us money"  God knows what they're on about
