I know I can get this answered here will the powertank mentioned run on Australian power with a variable powerpack to replace the foriegn mains plug?

I have this same unit, but a word of warning, the charger circuit can be dodgy, as it is not a trickle charger and if left on charge it can destroy the charging circuit once the battery is fully charged.
I also ended up destroying the battery, so I took it to Battery World, put in a new deep cycle motorcycle battery, and had them bypass the charging circuit and install an Anderson Plug and I now use my normal car battery charger.
Battery World didn't even charge me labour to put the Anderson Plug on, which cost about $15 from memory.
So, I would suggest that, rather than buying a charger from DS or Jaycar, get it converted for a normal car trickle charger.
My Powertank is really good now.
