Review on πŸ’‘ Krieger 150W Voltage Transformer: Step Up/Down Converter for American and European AC Outlet, 110/120V to 220/240V, UL and CSA Approved by John Huskisson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Worth the price, worked with Vitamix

Used it to convert from 220/240v to 110/120v while working abroad for about 8 months. It worked flawlessly with a Vitamix blender, Cuisinart poached egg machine, clothes steamer, large guitar amp, etc. I haven't tried anything else with the blender at the same time as based on amps (11.5) x volts (120) = Watt (1380), this corresponds to approximately 1700 watts for this item. I've never had any problems, although it includes an extra fuse just in case. It's very quiet (almost silent) and doesn't heat up! I am very happy with my purchase. It's a bit heavy but still lighter than others I've used in the past. I will never be able to go back to any of the regulars like I did during my service in Iraq. The thing looked like it was about to catch fire (too hot to touch) and was making a loud buzzing noise. The Warrior is expensive but worth the price given its performance for my needs. And the USB charging port was a lifesaver to keep my phone charged for the first few days out of the country before I could buy a USB charger locally (I won't forget to buy one of these in advance next time). Just make sure you carry an adapter so you can plug it into the wall anywhere. I believe that travel will resume at some point.
