Voltage converter ratings are generally within a voltage range. Appliances rated for 110 volts or 120 volts can usually operate from anywhere between 100 volts and 127 volts. Likewise, 220 volt or 230 volt appliances can usually operate from anywhere between 220 volts and 240 volts. Therefore, any quality Step-Down voltage converter will allow any 110 volt appliance to operate in 220 volt, 230 volt or even 240 volt countries. This is also true with a quality Step-Up voltage converter, which will allow any 220 volt appliance to be used in any 110 volt or 120 volt countries.
1500W Voltage converter can be used in 220V countries and 110V countries. It will convert from 110V-120V to 220V-240V and from 220V-240V to 110V-120V. The 1500W voltage converter is rated at 1,500 watts maximum. It features a heavy-duty cord with a standard US 3-prong plug. There are a total of three outputs on the front panel.
Using US electrical devices overseas means converting two things: the shape of the prongs on the plug and the type of electricity. You definitely need an adapter to for the prongs, you may (or may not) need an adapter for the electricity.
Your device should say the range of voltage it can handle. This should be on a sticker or on the plug or device itself. Some devices are internationally compliant and can handle the voltage (my iPhone charger is fine to use without a converter). Others will not and you will need to purchase a converter or use a different device. (Kinda’s Chi straightener actually started smoking in Wales and was destroyed. She now travels with a tiny straightener that is made to handle both voltages).
I recently purchased a set of Beolab 6000's from UK, but after arrival found out that it needs to be converted to 110v to be functional in the US. Any idea as to how this can be done?Another idea would be to buy an external 110 to 220V voltage converter. I'd advise to get one with an internal regulator to avoid some background noise.
Simpy plug this voltage converter into your Australian Mains Power outlet in your home or office, connect your American appliance to the outlet sockets, switch on the voltage converter and away you go.
