Conair instant heat curling iron. I want to know how to change the voltage?

Mine doesn't change voltage BUT you can make the heat consistency higher by dialing or spinning the number spool on the handle by the hot iron. Hope that helps

My wife tried to use a hair straightener in Italy. It is 110v stepped up to 220v. Unit got very hot and began to smoke.

a plug converter is all you need and make sure you have adjusted the setting on the actual hair dryer for the voltage that is being used. Works wonderfully :)

Put on the Brakes: It's not a kiln or a welder. 120V, circut breakers are mandatory in houses and good thing cuz my lights have flickered while using this iron. It makes my hair look amazing though so its worth it!

it's the power of the plug/voltage. first you need to check which power your country's plugs support. if it matches with the curling iron voltage, you can buy it.

Yes you can. The adapter is a Grounded Ceramic Adapter Plug. Max Capacity Up to 3000-Watt (max 250 Volt, 13 A). This is a very good quality adapter, not cheap plastic. Your hair drier and curling iron is probably 1500-watts max.

Hi - I don't know about the dual voltage or worldwide usage. There is a label attached to the power cord, but it is simply a warning to unplug when not in use, and also references the state-of-the-art instant heat technology. In regards to the temperature control, there is a dial that goes from 260 to 420 degrees. Whether or not this works, I don't know - not sure if I could tell the difference as even 260 is really hot. Hope this helps - I am really happy with the iron.

I dont know about the voltage but I bought this because I got a curling iron from England that I plug into that then into the USA socket and it's been working for me fine over 3 months

The Conair hot air brush is "dual voltage" only because it locks you out of the High setting when you're plugged into a 240 volt outlet. Beware. I'm still looking for one that works, too.

There is no adapter kit included with the curling iron, it just operates on dual voltage. I purchased a separate adapter plug to use with it.

I assume you have a dryer and curling iron are 120 volt. It depends on whether you plug this into a 120 volt or 220 volt power outlet. USA is 120 volt. The majority of the rest of the world is 220 volt. So determine what voltage you will be plugging into. If it is outside the USA you will most likely need an adapter plug to plug this strip into, if it isn't USA. And if you are plugging into 220 volt you will need a converter.

What is the wattage of the curling iron? If it exceeds the 300 watt rating on the transformer it will not work. Many curling irons have a switch for dual voltage use 120/240. If it can be switched to 240 you don't need the transformer.

Your question is not asked very well. The controller for this heating blanket has 3 positions, OFF, LOW & HIGH. That is all there is. You may not adjust it a little bit more, or less. The voltages are preset and they're only two of them. Low & High.

I have the original instructions. Clearly says to only 120v or 127v and that any other voltage could damage the iron and void the guarantee. You can buy a converter set. Probably available at Radio Shack or any electronics store.Hope this helps.

You can reduce the voltage but you can't change the hz. Your washing machine motor will run at a slower RPM (revolution per minute) Are you in Europe?

Check your transformer on your curling iron, most of them now come with a variable transformer 110-240 if so you may not need this item just an adapter.

Hi Virginia, This is NOT a dual voltage hair dryer. If you are traveling, the wattage in Europe is 220/125. To change the voltage you would have to purchase a very expensive and heavy voltage converter (which people used to do years ago before dual voltage hair dryers and other appliances). Two choices: one, buy a dual voltage here and then buy the various plugs for each country, or purchase a dryer in Europe which is not dual voltage, but only for European plugs. I purchased one in Paris and another in London many years ago, they work great. Good luck (Conair makes a cheap one that works)
