Click on image or text for more info How To Find the watts on your appliance so that you can select the correct transformer. To determine the correct model voltage converter or heavy duty transformer you need, you must find the watts of your appliance. You can find this information listed on the appliance manufacturer's label located on the back or bottom of the appliance or in the specifications section of the appliance owner's manual. We recommend to use a transformer that's max watts is at least 50% higher than your appliance. -A higher watts rated transformer will never hurt your appliance, however if you buy one that is not strong enough, it will not work. -Items such as TVs, Microwave ovens, laser printers and power tools require a transformer with 3 times the watts rating on the equipment. This is because these items require a surge of power when the are first turned on. IMPORTANT NOTE: Watts may be abbreviated as W on your appliance. However if you can't find watts or w on the label of your applaince, than you may be able to Find Amps also known as amperage, and A. This can be converted to watts to select the correct converter. If only the amperage rating is shown, multiply the input voltage by the amperage rating to find the wattage rating. Volts x Amps = Watts or 110V x 1.5 A = 165W Cycles - 50 Hz vs. 60 Hz North American 110-120 volt electricity is generated at 60 Hz. (Cycles) Alternating Current. Most foreign 220-240 volt electricity is generated at 50 Hz. (Cycles) Alternating Current. This cycle difference will cause analog clocks and timing circuits that use Alternating Current as a timing base to keep incorrect time. Most modern electronic equipment including battery chargers, computers, printers, stereos, tape and CD players, VCR/DVD players, etc. will not be affected by the difference in cycles. IMPORTANT: Voltage converters and transformers do not convert cycles. Table with 3 columns and 8 rows References are available upon request.

The world of electronic goods is a vast and confusing one. To begin with, half the world uses 110 volts, and the other half uses 220 or 240 volts. Sometimes we buy an electronic item that comes from a part of the world where they use the other voltage, or sometimes we want to travel and take our stuff with us. At times like these, we'll be looking for one of the many types of voltage converters that are on the market. What you buy will depend largely on your needs. To begin with, do you want to step up (from 110 to 220 or 240), or step down (from 220 or 240 to 110). It is possible to buy voltage converters that work both ways if you will need that. Foreign travel voltage converters are a device that allows you to use your appliances, from hair dryers to computers, in another country that runs on a different electrical voltage than your country. For instance, if you are traveling from the United States to England, step down voltage converters are needed. England uses 220 volts, while America runs on 110 volts. In order to plug your American appliances into English outlets, you would need to step down from 220 volts to 110 volts. This is where your foreign travel voltage converters come into play. You can even buy dual converters that work as step up and step down converters in one device. This works well if you are not sure what the voltage use is, or if you have a need for both. Keep in mind that for large appliances, you will need different wattages than you would need for something such as a hair dryer or curling iron. If you are not sure of what type of converter you need, it is always best to check with the retailer you are buying your converter from, or you can always check with the manufacturer. When in doubt, buy up, which can accommodate bigger appliances. Countries all over the world run on different electrical voltages. The United States runs on 110 volts, while some, but not all, European countries run on 220 volts. It can all seem confusing but if you keep in mind that voltage converters make your appliances work just about anywhere, it is not as daunting. For more info about voltage converters for traveling, please click on the above link. Electric voltage converters are necessary devices to have with you when you are traveling overseas. The reason is that American electricity runs on 110 volts, while most European countries run on 220 volts. This presents an obvious problem if you are planning on bringing small and large appliances with you when you travel abroad. If you were to travel from the United States to Italy, and without using a voltage converter just plugged in your hair dryer, you would in all likelihood destroy it. You also run the risk of a power surge which could result in a shock or a blown circuit. For these reasons, it is totally necessary for you to have the proper converters with you when traveling to other countries. And it makes sense to purchase these converters beforehand, because who really wants to shop for converters when they are in Italy? The type of electric voltage converters that you purchase will all depend on the type of appliances you will be bringing with you on your trip. For small appliances, such as hair dryers and curling irons, you will need a small, portable converter that plugs into the wall. You then plug your appliance into the converter when you wish to use it. Bigger appliances require more substantial voltage converters, and are usually only necessary if you are relocating to another country. Most of us don't bring our dishwashers and televisions with us when taking a vacation in Europe. For more info about which type of converters you will need for your travels, click on the link above. International voltage converters allow you to use your home appliances and electronics overseas. Whether you are coming from England to the United States, or you are going from America to England, you will need voltage converters to run your appliances. Countries all over the world run on different electrical voltages, and therefore you need converters when you travel or relocate to a country other than your own. American made large appliances, electronics, and small appliances run on 110 volts. Other countries, such as Great Britain, France, Germany, and Italy, run on 220 volts. Therefore it becomes necessary when traveling from country to country to use either a step up voltage converter, a step down voltage converter, or a dual voltage converter. Before buying any type of converter, it makes sense to ask the retailer you are purchasing your converter from what type of appliances it will work with. This will protect you from power surges and electrical shocks as well, because appliances that are plugged into inadequate converters can cause electrical accidents. When in doubt, always get the next level up. In general, American-made appliances which run on 110 volts, will need a step down converter when traveling to countries that run on 220 volts. When bringing appliances to America from these 220 volt countries, a step up converter will be needed to go from 110 volts up to 220 volts. In many cases, you can purchase dual international voltage converters which can go either way and accommodate different appliances. Travel voltage converters truly allow you to bring your required electronics with you without any hassles. There is probably nothing more aggravating than traveling to another country, only to find out that your hair dryer, curling iron, lap top, and other necessities don't work with their outlets. However, there are steps you can take to make sure that all of your electronics and small appliances work when traveling abroad. Voltage converters work by either stepping up or stepping down the voltage required of your appliance to work. For instance, if you are traveling from the United States, which runs on 110 volts, to Italy, which runs on 220 volts, you would need a step down voltage converter. In addition, you would need different types of converters for different types of appliances and electronics. For instance, you would need a small, portable converter for use with your hair dryer and curling iron. But if you were to be relocating to Italy, and you wanted to bring all of your large appliances, you would need a much bigger converter to handle the size. Travel voltage converters are small and lightweight, and you can just throw them in your suit case when packing. You'll be so glad you planned in advance, because no one wants to go shopping for converters when they are on vacation.

Europe voltage converters are necessary when you are traveling to Europe from the United States. American electricity runs on 110 volts, while most European countries run on 220 volts. This fact alone makes it necessary for you to take some steps when traveling with electronic appliances. Another point to consider when traveling to Europe is the prong-type used in different European countries. Italy, for example, uses a large two-pronged outlet that accommodates rounded prongs. Obviously, three pronged American plugs would not work here. Germany is another country with different prongs, and it can be frustrating when you are traveling with small electronics and appliances that you want to use. When planning a trip to Europe, it really does make sense to purchase your Europe voltage converters before you go. Most people want to enjoy the sights and take in the culture of the country they are visiting, without having to find the nearest hardware store in hopes of finding a voltage converter. Besides that, there is no guarantee you will be able to find the exact converter you are looking for to accommodate your specific needs.
