Decided to purchase ELK M1 GOld, but?

[bucko]

I am designing my HA project now and this board has been a great help to me. You can see my post #139984 for my project info.

I decided on the Elk M1 Gold panel for sure now. But a question comes to mind initially. This panel will be installed in China. Does the ELK have a proper 22v/50hz power transformer for this unit? I will most likely buy this through ADI since I still have my account there.

Thanks

PS: ELK has pretty good tech support, their techs are quite handy and will sit there and figure things out, in other words, if they don't have a pre-made solution I'm sure they'll be able to suggest something

FYI about my question. I did connect to Brad at ELK and he gave me some interesting info about powering an ELK M1 panel. This panel can be powered by DC! Use any DC power source 16-18 volts (3 amps). Connect the DC to the AC pwr terminals on the M1. Polarity dosen't matter. The M1 will work and it will not report A/C loss at the kp's!
I tell you these ELK panels are way cool. Almost ready to order as soon as I figure out all that I need to go with it.
