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.
