[Amps] Current draw at 110 volts for SB-200 and SB-1000

[Martin J. Morgenbesser]

Wow. The wealth of information one can gather from this list astounds me. 
Thanks again to everyone for their comments... and comments on comments!

Based on what I've read on this thread, it seems to me that if I do go with 
an SB-200 or SB-1000, running on "a buck and a dime" is certainly possible 
but far from ideal. If I go the Heath route, I would definitely put in 220 
service, sooner rather than later.

As for choosing the ideal amp if one were limited to 110/115/120 volt 
service; aside from finding an old Henry Radio amp with a choke filter 
power supply, the AL-811 and AL-811H amps seem to be the most likely 
candidates, being rated for 8 amps maximum current draw at 110/115/120 
volts (and only 4 amps at 220/230/240 volts).

Any thoughts on going the AL-811 or AL-811H route?
