I would go down to the local Sam's club and pick up a 1200va or bigger... I think that they were about $150 last I looked... Well worth it at home or shop... John A Golden Stitch -----Original Message----- I know this topic has been discussed before but of course I didn't keep any info. and now I need it. I am going to be running my Amaya at home and need some input on line conditioners/battery backups. I checked with one office supply store and they had know idea what I was taking about in terms of the line conditioner. Any suggestions on where to purchase would be appreciated. Also wondering, is there a good source out there for a new embroiderer on general guidelines/instructions for hooping and design placement that isn't mixed up with a bunch of other information and is actually useful? As always, thanks in advance for all of the helpful info. I know I'm going to receive!!!! --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: amayausers-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx For additional commands, e-mail: amayausers-help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
