Great Adapter!!!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This works for the universal adapter I bought from Germany since it has a 240v-110v. This has a rating of 10A max. This will not work if the power source from outside the U.S is not universal, you will need a Converter Step Down 220V to 110V. The reason I mention this is because of lots of questions about this unit taking a straight 240v and trying to plug into a 110v, it will not work. This is purely for a 240v/110v universal power source.

Robust Product
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.When my mom visited USA, she needed an adapter for her medical device (the plus is for India). I came to BestBuy pretty late in the evening almost nearing closing time. The staff were extremely friendly and guided me to a couple of areas within the store where I may find the adapters. I looked at a few and they were so ridiculously priced. I was not even looking for a converter. I only needed an adapter. Another BestBuy person saw my dilemma and pointed me to a different section where I found the "Insignia" adapter. The price was moderate. But the quality of the product was amazing. Just looking at it, I decided I was going to buy. When I tried this on at home, it felt solid. Works like a charm and for the price, definitely worth it. I will highly recommend this. An of course, thank you BestBuy. Your customer service is, as always, awesome.

Q: QuestionI have an 18,500 btu window air conditioner with a 220 plug... I'm trying to convert 220 to 110 by using an adapter... Will this work??
Asked by Sharky22.
- A:Answer Hi, So the adapter you are talking about just adapts the plug to an American power outlet. It does however not change the voltage of the power outlet. You need lookup whether the air conditioner works on 110 Volt 60Hz. Usually you find a label that tells you the voltage (range) on the rear of the AC: If the voltage range includes 110 Volt, the adapter is sufficient. If the voltage range does not include 110 Volt and just shows 220 Volt you need a power converter with sufficient Watts (as much as the AC) to make the AC work the plug will not be sufficient. hope that helps H

Q: QuestionI have an iron and coffee maker brought from Germany... and laptops... does this converter let them work on the US system?
Asked by Bishoy.
- A:Answer It should work with the laptops. The other items may depend on the electric draw since an iron and coffee maker require more electricity. My son used it to charge his laptop and phone.

Q: Questionwill this work for a UK hair waver that has a 250 volt 13A fuse voltage to use in US? thanks!
Asked by Sheridan157.
- A:Answer I'm not an electrician, so I defer to experts. But this product is NOT a voltage transformer/converter. Thus, if your hair waver is a "single voltage" device (i.e., it does not have its own voltage transformer/converter or a switch to go back and forth between 100~120V/200~250V), then I would not recommend using this product. Since your hair waver is 250V and almost all electric outlets in the US are 110-120V, it will not function properly without a voltage transformer/converter. Most voltage transformers/converters are much more expensive than this product, which is merely a plug adapter. Hope this helps.
