Would the BS8's work on the US's 120v power?

I was told yes, but if not - i'd either supply a power converter or buy a brand new US spec model.

That's awesome Lee! I plan to become a Gold member this year.

You beat me to it Stonk.

Compared to the rest of the world, the amount of Gold Members based in the USA is small - so naturally not as many US winners will pop up. However, again as mentioned, each member has an equal chance of winning in every draw. In fact, it's happened where a member has won TWO prizes in one draw!!

leogenghis:

Are these prize drawings open to overseas gold members? Has anyone from the US won? Recalling off-hand, it seems that most past winners have been in the UK, with some on the continent.

It's luck of the draw. Literally.

Many prizes go to all over the globe.

December prizes went to these lucky people:

December Prize Draw Winners

1st Mr L. Ernst - Munich, Germany

2nd Mr P. Curry - Newtown, NSW, Australia
3rd Mr P. Robin - London, UK
4th Mr P. Marter - Alicante, Spain
5th Mr M. Siffre - Charente, France
6th Mr L. Hockersten - Gothenburg, Sweden
7th Mr S. M. Forsgren - Sjovegan, Norway
8th Mr R. Harberg - Steinkjer, Norway
9th Mr K. Libens - Limburg, Belgium
10th Mr S. Numminen - Rauma, Finland

And if you look through the winners within the links HERE you'll see that there's not that many UK winners. The US has won a few larger prizes in the past but there's not really that many US gold members compared to Scandinavians and the rest of Europe. However, you'd have as much chance of winning as me (already a 1st prize winner) or anyone else around the world.

Excellent! If I win one, I promise to buy an iPod to hide that silly support paddle in the mid top instead of hacking it off!
