Have you wondered, “what is a travel voltage converter,
and do I need one?” If so, you’re on the right track to happy travels. You need
to know that the US & Canada’s appliances run on 110volts of electricity
versus other countries’ 220volts. So, a
converter switches the voltage down from 220v to 110v to prevent your
electronics from overheating.
This particular power converter has an easy to use hi-lo setting. The lo setting works for appliances using 0-25 watts like shavers and
curling irons, and the hi setting
works for 26-1600 watt devices like hair dryers, irons, and steamers.

3 Things to Keep
in Mind:
-do not use with dual-voltage devices like
laptop computers
-only use for short periods to prevent from overheating. Unplug devices after use.
-Converters do not fit all countries’ outlets. If outside
Europe or in UK, Denmark, Italy, and Switzerland, you’ll also need a travel
adapter.
