Upgraded 2200W 220V to 110V Converter for European Travel, Voltage Converter US to Europe for Hair Dryer Straightener Curling Iron, 2300W Power with USB Ports for Tablet Camera Cell Phone

I do a lot of international travel and I always bring an adapter and converter with me. The DOACE converter and adapter is small but powerful. It’s so easy to pack, and comes with an easy to store pouch. I can use it on all of my devices: iPad, iPhone, blow dryer, and hot iron. It works great for use with power sources in UK, Europe and Asia—the places I’m using it for. First of all, it's not only for travel use, as it has a standard American power supply and can accommodate 3 standard plugs plus 4 USB charged devices. Since the number of USB charged devices in our household has multiplied over the years, this alone makes the DOACE a great asset. Secondly, when you do need to travel, this single device should accommodate most of your equipment. I must say that the explanatory product photos on the Amazon product page are very well done, and answer very well which kinds of devices need voltage conversion and which don't. Much to my surprise, most of the typical chargeable devices like laptops, electric shavers, toothbrushes, tablets, phones, etc, don't need voltage conversion, and can just charge off the USB ports or with the two blank white adapter outlets on this box. For the remaining few items that need conversion to American voltage, the outlet that is helpfully labeled with the American flag will always supply American voltage in any country. So this outlet alone converts voltage. The blank outlets will match the voltage supplied by whichever country you're in. Blow dryers, electric kettles, and other items requiring the American voltage should be plugged into the flag outlet. Finally pls don't hesitate you can buy one have a try .

I stressed over our trip to France and Italy b/c I didn't know how I would straighten my hair with my expensive elchim hair dryer and chi flat iron. 3rd world problems . . . I know, lol. Years ago, I had gone to Australia with a converter and tried using my curling iron and dryer. The curling iron never heated up, only gave a low buzzing sound and I threw it away after that for safety reasons. The dryer only worked for 5 minutes then would over heat. So my biggest worry now had a flat iron thrown into the mix. Since this was tested with a babyliss, I went out and bought the babyliss hair dryer. I plugged it in at the hotel in Italy and held my breath as I turned it on . . . . and it worked like a champ! Yes, it worked like normal. Same power and everything. I also bought a cheap flat iron from TJMaxx that was dual voltage. I was too afraid to risk my chi flat iron. The flat iron brand was "Exclusive" and I used it in this converter and it heated up just like it normally does at home. The bonus I love about this converter is the 4 ports for phone charging. They usually only come with 1 or 2 phone ports, but this had 4 ports. I will probably buy a 2nd converter when we take our 2 boys to Europe this summer since they will be in a separate room and will need to charge their phones. The other nice thing is the extension cord. Believe me it makes a difference when you have a big brick converter plugged directly into the wall, it never stays in. We were able to leave the converter on the nightstand and easily use the ports for phone charging while surfing on our phones at bedtime. So pleased we got this, I highly recommend!

Bought this for a trip to Europe. On the second day I plugged my power bank into the converter. After a few minutes there was a popping sound and the power bank started smoking. We quickly unplugged it but it smelled really bad in our room for a while and the power bank was burning hot and no longer worked. This incident tripped the breaker for our room and we had to contact management to flip it back for us. I figured it was the fault of the age of the power bank. Well today (12 days later) I plugged in the charger for my mom’s medical device and after a few minutes the popping sound happened again. The charger was burning hot, smelled of burnt plastic, and does not work anymore. This is not going to be as easy to replace as the power bank. Luckily we were in the room for both of these incidents because the smoke and temperature of the items makes me think a fire could easily have happened if we hadn’t been there to unplug it. Obviously, I cannot return this because I am out of the country, but I want to warn others about this product.

So you're probably wondering why I'm writing a review at this time. I won't be going to Europe until October and I wanted to put out there what I do know so far. It works just fine here in the states. The two plugs on the right side work with my hair dryer, which was what was most important to me. All four USB ports work just fine. What I haven't been able to get to work with anything I've tried yet is the plug under the American flag. I'm very confused about that plug, even after carefully reading the instructions. I think maybe you have to have a background as an electrician or an electrical enginner to understand it, but in any case, I'm keeping it just in case that particular plug becomes a necessity when I'm overseas. I will come back and update this review when I return from my trip.

Un excelente producto que recomiendo mucho. Silencioso. Me sirvió muy en París así como en Camerun Africa.
