How to find correct Voltage Converter
To determine the right voltage converter for your appliance, first find out the voltage (110 or 220 Volt
AC) and wattage rating (watts or amps) information on the back or bottom of the appliance or from
instruction book of an appliance. If no watts are shown and only amps are shown, multiply the volts
(input AC) by the amps to find the watts. For example, Volts (AC input) x Amps(amperage) = Watts
(Wattage) 110V x 0.5A = 55W
The size of a voltage converter is defined by the wattage. Therefore, the size you'll need depends on
which devices you'll be powering and the number of watts they use. We would recommend using a
voltage converter / transformer which has a Wattage that is 2 to 3 times higher than your appliance.
Certain appliances such as power tools, motors, laser printers and TVs require a converter 2-3 times the
Watts that the appliance is rated for because they require a surge of power when they are turned on.
This extra wattage is a precautionary measure to ensure that your equipment will function properly and
that the voltage converter will not be damaged.
Keep in mind that a transformer with a higher watt rating will never hurt your appliance, however if you
buy one that is not strong enough, it will not work.
Instructions
1. On back of the transformer, select input voltage according to country of use. At 110 volts countries
such as USA, set the input voltage switch to 110 volts. . At 220 volts countries in Europe, Middle East,
Asia, Africa, etc., set the input Voltage switch at 220 volts.
2. High Humming sound may be hard if set incorrectly, disconnect immediately.
3. After selecting the correct input voltage on the back of the transformer, push ON/OFF switch to the
ON position.
4. Check the watts on your equipment to make sure you are not exceeding the max watts of the
converter. Please remember to multiply the watts consumption of your equipment by 2-5 times to
accounts for voltage spikes
5. Do not let it be over maximum capacity of the transformer.
6. Turn off when not in use.
