On a side not, what does the "efficient power supply" of the VK204-25-VPT-E add over the VK204-25-V-E?
Thanks for any information and assistance!
Can I pick up my VFD in person?
I have noticed that MO is based in Calgary which is where I live. I was wonder if I could pick up the VFD (VK204-25-VPT-E) I was interested in person raither than have it shipped the 10-12km's you are from my house. This would save me both time and money.

Yes you can come by and pick one up, all funds are in USD!!!
Q:
What is the difference between the "V" and "VPT" options for wide voltage?
A:
The "V" option is a linear regulator and the "VPT" option is a switching regulator. A switching regulator is far more efficient at converting a high voltage to a lower one. This means that it is largely unaffected by input voltage levels and power usage by the module. It generates minimal heat and wastes very little power. This type of regulator is offered as an option on some models and is the standard "wide voltage" option on other models. The maximum input voltage for a "VPT" module is also higher than a "V" module at +30 volts instead of +15 volts.

Sweet, thanks for the information there Henry! I was told to ask you from some friends online and they where correct. I had one other question for you however, Can I get the address of where I should go since I don't know your exact location anymore as well as the time frame in which I can pick it (maybe them) up?
