Hi I'm in USA, I have a LED light that requires 220volts and draws 60 watts. will this converter take my house voltage of 110 and step it up to 220?

Yes. I bought it for the same purpose. It does both. Step up (110 to 220) and step down (220 to 110) if you travel to a Europian country.

Hi Brad, sure should work seamless for the 60 W LED. In general, I would always stay ca. 30% below the max. Watts given by the manufacturers of such devices because of temperature issues. Other than that, I use this one for one year now without any problem. Hope this helps.Best regardsPatric

This is an outlet adapter, not a power converter. It will not reduce the voltage from 220 to 120. You will need a 220-to-120 converter-transformer to accomplish your goal. Please also make sure that such converter is rated to handle the amps that your device requires.

I do not believe so. The wiring is setup for 110V and the bulb is 110v. I am not an electrician however and I cannot comment on what it would take to make it 220 V

No this will not work on 220 volts. The light fixtures these lamps work in are 120 volts

Hi yes the light fixture is 110 volts. If you need a 220 light fixture you should contact the company maybe they can help you I hope this helps

None of the other answers take this seriously. Many of us living abroad plug in electronics into 220 and it's fine. In general devices that transform electricity into DC accept a wide range of voltage input. LEDS are like that. An incandescent bulb would burn out rapidly, but the stupid "fireworks" comments are not helpful.

you need to call the manufacturer for that information. A lot of small appliances need a transformer to work, otherwise the 220 V will fry the circuitry

I doubt it. Better to put a dimmer AFTER the converter block. That is how I run my LED lights, and it works flawlessly *PROVIDED YOU HAVE DIMMABLE LED LIGHTS*. Mine are remote-controlled 16' Cool White CREE strings, and they work flawlessly when dimmed *AFTER* the converter. The power OUT lines are connected to the dimmer unit, and the dimmer unit is connected to the LED string leads. I wouldn't try to put a dimmer on the 120V side, but that's just me.

I live in the US and have 110 so I have no problem you would probably need a power converter.

This item is not a convertor. If your appliance accepting both 220v and 110v you should be fine. You can probably see that on your power chord/unit, labeled "input".

Says 120v/60Hz only, MAX 60 w..using the 220v might cause some heat in the wires, but I am not a certified electrician, so this is just an opinion. I was disappointed with the lamp because it has a thin base that goes against the wall, makes it look cheap, and light socket uses a smaller opening,not the standard opening found in lighting receptacles

Yes you can use this converter in the US, since it is a dual converter, which means it can do 110-220 and 220-110. However, as stated in a previous answer, be careful with the wattage of the item to be plugged in; make sure not to exceed 70-80 per cent of the maximum wattage of the transformer.

This light works with 110v power supply. I actually turned the lights into plug in lights by connecting them to an extension cord. They are on a switch for my house and they work great.

You are confusing Watts and Volts! American current is 110 VOLTS, but the description here says 220 WATTS. That would mean simply that it uses as much current as a 220 watt light bulb, but you could screw a bulb of any wattage into a 110-VOLT receptacle!

Yes, it steps up and down from 220v to 110v for the country you are in. It is rated at 300 watts. You might get a lower watt one if you never will need 300 watts to run something.

Of course it will. With the use of a 220V bulb only half the current is flowing when compared to a 110V bulb with the same wattage.

I connected mine to a 110, but I'd guess it would work the same with 220 given you plug in 220 bulbs. It's just a fixture and some wires. No "brain" or anything...
