Tools and Hardware Reviews of Grounded Europe Adapter - CE Certified - USA to Europe - Heavy Duty Adapter
Customer Review: Already Broken
Summary: 1 Stars
Cheap junk. Bought this for a several week business trip to Germany. My phone adapter never fit correctly in it. The laptop plug did, but it would make buzzing, arcing noises from inside this adapter. On the third day, the plastic housing just came apart, exposing the internal contacts. At least there weren't any signs of burning inside. It is in the trash now. Fortunately, I had also bought a different model adapter at the same time, or I would be looking at buying an overpriced adapter here overseas.Customer Review: Check your appliance Voltage Rating - Dual Voltage or Not ?
Summary: 5 Stars
A grounded adapter or non grounded adapter only changes the pin configuration to fit inside another country's electrical outlet. An adapter does not change the voltage. You need to check your appliance's voltage to see if it is dual voltage 110 - 240 volts. If so, all you need is an adapter and they do the job fine. If the appliance rating is only for 120 volts and it is not dual voltage, then you will need to buy a converter or transformer to go with the adapter. This converter ( or transformer) will then lower the incoming voltage down from 240 volts ( in Europe, Africa and most of Asia ) to 120 volts. Remember - adapters only adapt the pins, they do not change the voltage.
Voltage Converter - 0 to 50 Watt
Voltage Converter - 50 to 1600 Watt
Voltage Converter - 50 to 2000 Watt
Transformer - 85 Watt Non Grounded Light Duty
Voltage Converter - Combo (0 to 50) & (50 to1600) Watt
Voltage Surge Protector - 220 Volt
Transformer - 200 Watt Non Grounded Heavy Duty
Customer Review: Does the job!
Summary: 5 Stars
This adapter really made the difference during our trips to Germany. It worked as promised. Excellent deal for the price.Customer Review: EU standard only
Summary: 3 Stars
I purchased this adapter for a recent business trip to the U.K. Once I arrived at the first hotel in England I realized that the adapter was not going to work. I believe that it is configured to simply adapt the U.S. plug to a European Union standard (which I didn't find in England and may not be everywhere in the rest of Europe.)
Instead of this, I suggest purchasing the Sharper Image Worldwide Adapter with USB Charger. It has plug adapters for many countries including the EU prongs of this product. It is also capable of charging your USB devices such as cell phones.
Customer Review: Good adaptor for Europe and China
Summary: 5 Stars
I have personally used this adaptor in Germany, Poland, and China. It worked well for me. As it is simply an adaptor, what more is there to say other than it worked?
