The export version J-21 is for 110, 220 and 250 volts operation and costed $ 19.95. See details for the models of this catalog or summaries - and for the next catalog with this model. Interesting is the other measurement in one of the two catalogs for the same: 18 x 10.125 x 8.125 inch. We have to keep in mind that it is always only a rough information.
