About Starlite 3000 Watt Step Up/ Down Voltage Converter
Which size to buy: What size (capacity in watts) transformer you want to buy depends on the input watts required by your item. If your device does not mention watts then use this formula to derive watts from other information. Watts = Volts X Amps. For example, a 1.1Amp device which runs on 110 volts would be 121 watts. Remember to leave at least a 100% slack for the transformer. Using them to maximum capacity will eventually burn the transformer out after prolonged use. So for that 1.1 Amp/121 Watt device buy a 300 watt transformer. Some items, such as laser printers, microwaves, CRT TVs/Monitors and power tools spike when you turn them on. These "spikes" occur for a fraction of second but they raise the required amperage 2-3 times than the normal operating Amperage. For example, a 120 Volt CRT TV which normally runs at 2 Amps will spike to 6 Amps at startup. So you would need to buy a 6 Amps X 120 Volts = 720 watts. For this item we recommend a 1500 watt transformer. We have sold voltage transformers for use with Refrigerators, Microwaves, Stereo Systems, TV's, VCR's, DVDs, Power Tools, Hot Tubs and more. They have worked perfectly for these situations and we have not had any customers complain about their functionality or compatibility with such items. Please e-mail us if you have any questions regarding compatibility of an item with a voltage transformer.
