I bought a soymilk maker whose power rating is 180w when blending and 1000w when heating the soymilk. So which voltage converter I should get?

right now I'm not sure when I get home I'll check the ratings and email you

1500w - 2000w. If the heater is turmed on for longer time (hours or more) I would recommend 2000w.

the recommendation is to have a much stronger converter from the device you 're using. Other people say you need twice as strong. You should probably look into spending a little more and get a 2500 or 3000 watts.

This converter is actually made to reduce power from 220v outlets/output to 100-120v so you do not overload and "fry" your appliance. Your heater may work on 110-120v but not as effectively or efficiently as it would on 220v's.

According to the sticker on the base of the blender, it is rated 120 VAC, 5 Amps so no, it wouldn't be rated at 1000 watts - more like 600 max.

Champion can wire the commercial models for 220 v use and I would highly recommend that over using a converter. rewiring the household models is not done. buying a converter to handle enough power for a 1/3 horsepower load is huge money.

The transformation ratio is 220/110 = 2 or 240/120 = 2. If your voltage is 230 V, then on the low voltage side you will get 230/2 = 115 V. Most appliances have some tolerance to the input voltage e.g. +- 5%. I would check first the label of the appliance, and if 115 V is within that range, it is safe to use this transformer.

If the coffe maker is less than 1600 watts is ok to use it. Also a coffe msker is use for a short oeriod of time which wont make damage to the voltage comverter

The voltage is 120 but have no clue on the watts. I can't seem to find it on the machine plate. Sorry.

look up the power consumption in the manual - I just found one Jura coffee maker that consumes 1,300w which will blow any fuse protecting a 1,000w power supply. You will need to have your converter at least 30-50& over rated for the appliance - this should be listed somewhere online so the blown fuses is probably telling you that your converter is under sized

Do you recommend me a voltage convertor for waffle maker on http://amazon.com. I found converter but which watt need this waffle maker.

Hi, Even though it is recommended to use a converter, but since the voltage difference is not significant, and after consulting an electrician, we have use it in the us wo converter successfully. My mother in law is Japanese who have brought many things electrical from Jspan to use here in US wo problem. She thinks we fuss too much for nothing. Hope this help.

We recommend more efficient transformer such as the LT-1500:LiteFuze LT-1500 1500 Watt Voltage Converter Transformer - Step Up/Down - 110V/220V - Circuit Breaker Protection

All you need to do is buy a power converter, radio shack has them or even find them here on Amazon. Plug the mixer into the converter and you should be good to go !

Thanks everyone for their responses, all very helpful! I'll definitely get more than 1500W. I'll only use it to make a cup or two at a time, so won't be for any extended periods. Thanks again!

My answer would be no, mostly because your appliance is very high wattage. I am using mine with a 600 W food processor. It is recommended that you use an inverter that has atleast twice the wattage than your appliance. You will either end up burning the appliance or the inverter and you will also be using a lot of electricity to make a cup of coffee. Now you could use a step down voltage regulator with 2000 W rating but no guarantees. Look at the forum here, that might help: http://forum.singaporeexpats.com/viewtopic.php?p=463525

I used it to transformer a soy bean machine with 1500W, but the fuse kept blown...that's why I returned it

If you are just going to make a cup or a few cups at a time you need 1500watt Transformer. If you are using it for couple of hours at a time you should consider even doubling the watts (3000w).
