There are two "main" types. The first are about the same size as an external modem and are designed for use with hair driers, shavers etc and most definitely NOT suitable for use with computer equipment. The other type provide a properly regulated 110V supply and have a more industrial appearance, unsurprisingly as a typical application is for use with electronics test equipment or power tools. The transformer I use is about the size of an external SCSI case but a lot heavier because it is oil cooled.
