Phew! My hair straighteners (flat iron) work again........2007-09-07
I bought this so I could use UK appliances in the USA. I only use it for my GHD hair straighteners and my Kitchen Aid blender. It hums and vibrates when I use it for my straighteners which is probably a 'bad thing' but they get hot and my hair gets straight. It probably hums when I use the blender too, but the blender is louder. It's very heavy for its size, but I carry it between the kitchen and bathroom regularly and it's fine.
It arrived quickly and was very well-packaged. The plug doesn't fit the US mains but it comes with an adapter. I think it would enable US appliances to work in the UK with the correct plug adapters but I haven't tried that yet.
Overall I am very happy with this product, but slightly nervous of the humming and whether this means it is dangerous. Hopefully someone will post a comment to put my mind at ease.
Seven Star AR-500.......2007-08-16
I had to take a guess on this because I have never before needed to regulate voltage. I needed to get something to enable me to use my acoustic guitar amplifier which I brought over from the UK to the USA. I was very impressed with the little time it took to arrive (well before its scheduled estimated time). It works a treat! It was very simple to set up. The instruction booklet is definitely for the minimalist but the instrument itself is so straightforward...self evident. A very satisfying and pleasing acquisition. The price was good and the packaging very solid and secure.
Reasonable price and does the trick!! I am ordering two more........2007-04-04
I've recently moved from Australia to the U.S. with several devices that are 220V. I first bought a smaller device from eBay to use for my desktop computer (which doesn't have 110-220V for some reason), but it didn't work. I've bought this device and it worked very well. I've had it for over a month now and I tested it with my desktop PC, TV, DVD player, video player and my wife's GHD (hair stuff - a heating device). It works very well, given the number of devices I have I will order two more.
The good thing is that if I move back to Australia, I can re-use the same device to get the 110V devices I bought from here to work in Australia.
Great product, a little difficult to figure out how to use it.......2007-03-16
It comes with no instructions, but now that I figured it out it's been working great
Buyer beware.......2007-03-10
I bought one of these, and it is nice, and works fine with one major disappointment. The picture clearly shows TWO US current outlets. The unit I got only has one plug. SO I thought I was saving money, but now I need to buy another one. Its really false advertising! If I knew it only had one US current plug, I would have bought a different unit. Very VERY VERY disappointing

Customer Reviews:
Broke after a year.......2007-12-22
I have the 800 Watt version of this, and after about a year of use (low wattage, powering just my 110V printer of on and off use), my SIMRAN 800 broke. It started to make clicking noises, and then afterwards if I turned it off, it wouldn't work for 10-15 minutes after I turned it on. Now even when it starts to work, it doesn't stay on continuously, so it's essentially useless (and I'm sure it's not very good for my devices). Maybe it has too many "features". Perhaps a simple 1-way transformer would be better.
TRANSFORMER.......2007-11-15
I have been using this transformer for almost a week now and it works perfectly. It is medium in size and not huge, the shape is sleek, no noise what so ever and the power switch is on all the time. It produces minimal heat when is on. It can be used for both, 110V and 220V countries. It is certainly recommended.
Product Description
This voltage converter can be used in 220-240 volt countries. It will convert from 220-240 volts to 110-120 volts for appliance less then 200 watts . There is one output on the front of this unit to plug 110 Volts appliance. The plug adapter has universal female output. Insulated power cord is hard wired with a grounded "Schuko" plug which is good for European/Asian outlets is also included. Voltage Converter is used to convert the voltage of the source (coming from the wall) to match the voltage required to run the device. Voltage converter / transformer can be used to transform 220V coming from the source (wall) 110V. These power converters can be used overseas like Europe where the voltage is 220V to run 110 V devices. Voltage Converters are referred to as power converter, travel converter, voltage transformer, voltage convertor Europe, travel voltage converter, transformer voltage, volt transformer, AC power, travel voltage and voltage regulator. The travel converters are sometimes referred to small AC voltage converters which are used to run CD players, computers and other electrical products for continuous use. Step down Transformer is used to step down the source voltage (coming from the wall) to match the voltage to run the device. All Voltage Converter/ Power transformers can be used continuously. We recommend adding 25% to your devices wattage to accommodate any kind of surge while selecting a voltage transformer/ converter.Caution: - Please make note of your appliance input voltage and accordingly plug into appropriate transformer . eg if appliance consumes 150 watts then you can use 200 watts converter . it appliance uses 200 watts then it is better to by 300 watts . INCORRECT SELECTION OF INPUT VOLTAGE MAY CAUSE PERMANENT DAMAGE TO YOUR CONVERTER AND EQUIPMENT.
Product Description
Maximum capacity 500 Watts. This voltage converter can be used in 110 volt countries and 220 volt countries. It will convert from 220-240 volts to 110-120 volts and vice versa. There are two outputs on the front of this unit, one for 110 Volts and one for 220 Volts. Both of these female outputs are universal and will accept 2 or 3 prong male plug adapters from anywhere in the world. There is an input voltage selector switch on the back of the unit which allows you to select from 110, 200, 220, and 240. Insulated power cord is hard wired with a grounded plug adapter for USA, Canada and Mexico. An additional European/Asian grounded "Schuko" plug which is good for European/Asian outlets is also included. Voltage Converter is used to convert the voltage of the source (coming from the wall) to match the voltage required to run the device.
Voltage converter / transformer can be used to transform 110V coming from the source (wall) to 220/240V or 220/240V coming from the source to 110V. These power converters can be used overseas like Europe where the voltage is 220V to run 110 V devices or in US (where power is 110 v) to run overseas 220 / 240 volt devices.
Voltage Converters are referred to as power converter, travel converter, voltage transformer, voltage convertor Europe, travel voltage converter, transformer voltage, volt transformer, AC power, travel voltage and voltage regulator. The travel converters are sometimes referred to small AC voltage converters which are used to run CD players etc for smaller duration and not for continuous use.
Step Up Transformer is used to step up the source voltage (coming from the wall) to match the voltage to run the device. Vice versa with Step Down Transformer.
All Voltage Converter/ Power transformers can be used continuously. We recommend adding 25% to your devices wattage to accommodate any kind of surge while selecting a voltage transformer/ converter.
