Well ive just gotten my Jpn Saturn and it says 100V ont he back of it, now seeing as im in Australia where the voltage is 220/240V i'm going to need a step down transformer.
Would a Jpn Saturn work fine on the 110/120V out put of the Step down converter or would it make shit nice and smokey?

I use my Jap saturn with a 110v stepdown here in the UK, it gets a bit warm if you have been playing for a few hours, but nothing serious..

Thanks for that, I have just bought a 220V to 100V stepdown converter.
I live in australia so i will have to use an adapter to change it from the UK 3 prong to Australian 3 flat pin.

I was just unsure about the voltage differences with the Saturn saying 100V and the stepdown converters outputting 110V.
