Can you over/under supply Soldering Iron?

Ok I found out that they are "220v 50/60HZ" irons and as I live in Australia land of the 240v they should be fine.... right? Its only 20v more and I have a dimer on the soldering iron anyway.

I agree that it should work on 240V, especially with the dimmer.

Should be fine. Even here is the US where our power is rated as 110/220, mine runs 120/240 consistently and I've had no problem running anything rated at 220 at 240.
