I went and found the 1570, here is the sticker on the back, you can see that the 220 volts has be changed in the factory or at Commodore Australia to 240 whith a marker pen!, seems like the drive really was a rush job. Looks like at least 7603 were made so it's not all that rare.

Hi Jason;

I just don’t know. I called my British father and he thought they were close enough. In Canada we run between 110 and 120 volt, so 220 to 240 does not seem like a stretch. North American 1571’s are labeled 117v.
