  Fear.

  The /x30 and /x70 chassis run on 110v...the /x90 chassis is configured to run
on 220v by default, but that's just the power controller.  The actual chassis
inside runs from 110v just fine.  Just bypass the vertically-mounted power
controller and plug the individual chassis in by themselves.

  They don't even pull much power unless you've got a backplane filled with
comm hardware or other crap.
