if i want to use this in china, do i have to get a 120-220v converter? or does it have one inside?

Kelvin: I don't know the answer to your question but I can recommend this as a very reliable unit running off US standard current/voltage. Mine has been running in my living room for two years or so without interruption and it still works great. Good luck!

It just depends what you are plugging into it. A laptop for example, has a big fat brick type thing that is in the power cable, one side goes to laptop, the other goes into outlet. If you read the fine print on this black brick thing, it will say, input 110v - 240v, 50-60hz. So for this example, you need no converter. Take any of your portable electrics, and it will have similar info on it. You want to make sure it says 110v-240v, 50-60hz input. If it just says 110v input, you need a converter.

No, because this is a 120w Babyliss and you will need a 220 voltage converter.

No...per my husband (because I have no clue about this and we just went overseas), you need a converter before you plug this into a 220V. You can get the converter at RadioShack or the airport for pretty cheap. We have 120V at home and it works fine but 220V we used the converter.

No..i got it from the States too and it listed only 120V. U will need a coverter

I'm not sure what you're asking, but it uses at 110V outlet, so if you're in a country outside the US you may want to purchase a converter for it.

No, This item is a 120V item and will not work on 220V without an inverter or adapter.

I would recommend researching the power converting to ensure it meets your needs. I would not want to answer incorrectly and mislead you since I am not a technical expert on the converter. I had purchased it to use for a China trip. If I don't sell it, I will most likely keep it for upcoming travel. The reviews I have read have all mentioned it being a great converter in many different countries.

No, I don't think the one I bought does. I would think there would be an adapter so it will work with 220v but mine doesn't have one. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful

YES!! easily. My girlfriend is Chinese and I run into that issue often. No problems yet. There might be a problem with very high amperage but you said "small". Also be sure that it is a ~120v appliance. This item is an adapter NOT a power/voltage converter.

It depends what you want to use for. I used it in USA to transfer 110V to 220V for charging a battery in a lamp bought in China, which required the 220V, not 110V. It worked very well for that purpose.

There is an Asian version of this for 200-240 volts,but you will probably have to buy locally. Even though I live in Arizona I first came across this on a Korean TV show I was streaming. I also saw it just recently in a Thai cooking show.

i think you might need converter while you use in China. China is 220v, but USA and Japan are all 110v
