Power 230V/115V 13VA (VA, not watts). GBP-only, no USD price published. Drawmer's '19xx' model numbers denote the vintage decade/era the design pays homage to, not the actual year of introduction; actual year_intro left blank since not explicitly stated on the product page (golden rule: blanks over guesses).
