This review is from: Power Bright VC100W Voltage Transformer 100 Watt Step Up/Down 110 Volt - 220 Volt (Lawn & Patio)

I am currently in the Army deployed to Afghanistan and here it is a 210v outlets. So in order to plug in my Xbox I needed a transformer that would work well in the dusty enviornment of Afghanistan. This is a great product and works well with both 110v and 210v-240v (there are settings for all voltages).

PROS
-Works great with Xbox360, PS3, and other American appliances.
-Comes with extra fuses in case you burn them out.
-There is a power switch on it so you can plug in first to double check and make sure it is in the right port (even if it isnt it will just burn out the fuse rather than blow your appliance)
-It is slotted for all different types of plus ie. european plug which are 2 prongs and iraq plugs which is 2 flat with 1 veritical plug

CONS
There is a burning smell when I use it past an hour I feel like its probably because of dust stuck inside or what not but maybe you will not have the same problem.


CONCLUSION
If you are currently serving overseas ie. Germany,Iraq,Afghanistan,Italy this is a great product to buy when you want to play your xbox360 or ps3 since they are 110v.
Just be sure to read carefully and always use proper safety procedures when operating any electronics.

I purchased this to use certain small electrical devices that I brought from the UK to use in Barbados. It works exactly as I hoped/expected it to work. Very simple to use and small enough to take with me if I need to use 110v devices in 220v countries or vice versa.

I use this converter for a Wii from China (yes, I know) and it works great! The only downside is that it can only handle 100W, but other than that, its the best.
