Per the guy who designed it (iComp.De - he makes tons of amiga/commodore custom electronics) - the input frequency doesn't matter:
does 60 hz / 240V power vs 50 hz / 240V power matter for this power supply if I go the transformer route?
It shouldn't - it's a simple rectifier design where grid frequency is not used for anything.
Be careful here, transformer windings are inductors, and as such they exhibit inductive reactance. In many instances you cannot safely run a 60Hz transformer on a 50Hz circuit and vice-versa. -Dave -- Dave McGuire, AK4HZ New Kensington, PA
