I am confused by all the wattage questions. What type plus is this? If A or B, it can be used in the U.S. Some of the Sedus are only for use in other countries. Please let me know if you are in the U.S. and if this unit has a standard A or B plug (If you google plug type A and B, you can see pictures), for standard U.S. outlets. Thank You.

Hello. I do not recall the type plus of this model. I purchased it as a Christmas gift for my sister last year and did not use it, myself. Yes - I am in the USA, and my sister, who is also in the USA, indicated she used and liked the item.

It IS pretty darn weird that there is NO documentation on the unit's wattage ...online or in the manual. But I finally resorted to tipping mine back far enough to read the plate on the bottom, and it is says 1350W. I knew it had to be no more than 1500W or it couldn't be advertised for a standard household outlet. In any event, since you don't leave this unit turned on once you've made your coffee, it should affect your electric bill less than a standard drip coffee pot that stays on to keep the pot warm.

Hi, all plugs and sockets are for USA outlets. I use mine with Australian appliances in my US house, have plug adapters which let you plug an Australian plug into the US sockets in the front of the box. If you are going to use it in Australia for US equipment would need a socket adapter from US to Australian. These are cheap on Amazon, brought both types for about $8 and work fine. Also a lot of my Australian electronics work fine on the USA without a voltage converter. Things like TV, DVD, lap top, wii etc, however things like treadmill, vacuum and tools need a voltage conversion and this box has worked great for me. Hi, all plugs and sockets are for USA outlets.

They sell the light in two versions. One for US power plugs and another one for European power. Be sure to purchase the right version.

Hi everyone! I actually started this thread ages ago and got a notice about the last post so I thought I would chime in. :)I ended up buying a GHD in the end. It is UK plug, so when I use it home, I have to use a plug converter. Nothing electric, just to make is usable in the US plug (2 spoke vs 3 spoke). It works wonderfully, but plan on getting the plug changed over since the UK (3 prong) is MASSIVEEEE and heavy and a pain. But my hair looks wonderful! Look into the GHD. They are ALL "Universal voltage", so all you need is the plug converter which you typically get in those travel kits with adapters/ converters. Hi everyone!

This adaptor will plug into the wall in Ireland and Scotland with their 230 voltage. This adaptor does not convert the 230 voltage to 110 volt. You need to look at the plug on the appliance that you want to use. If the plug says input is "110/240" then that plug will take either 110 volt or 230 volt, and this adaptor will be fine with that appliance. However, if your plug says input is only 110 volt, then this adaptor will not work, since it does not convert the voltage from 230 to 110. So it all depends on what your appliance plug says it will take as input. If the appliance you want to use says only 110 volt input, you will need a different adaptor, one that also converts the voltage from 230 to 110.

Honestly this is not my background. However this unit operates on a 220 circuit, hence the reason for the different plug style. Personally I would leave plug as it is and not mess with it.

This specific one is designed for USA 120VAC. I know that they make one that is for 220VAC but not sure if you can buy on Amazon.com. If you have the proper adaptor you should be ok, but I have had issues with appliances when travel that are not designed to the local electrical standards (I find this usually happens when you have a product designed for high voltage going to low voltage countries or 60Hz design on 50hz. I know that the units they sell into Hong Kong are designed for the 220VAC, I see them there frequently. Zojirushi has a good website you may be able to get some more information there on the specific product that is designed for 220VAC. This specific one is designed for USA 120VAC.

Hi, Lu- It has US, European, and English/Irish inputs and outputs - which also cover Japan, Thailand, Australia, and other places - so it's pretty universal. Note that it does not change voltages. It is an adapter, not a power converter. I don't particularly like how it fits into some inset wall outlets in Europe - the device has some weight to it, so it can tend to pull out of the wall. There are small adapters for Europe that work much better.

This is a plug adapter from just about any type of plug to a plug type common in Italy. This will not work in the US; you will need another plug adapter for that. However, you could plug in something that has a plug type from the US into this converter and be able to plug the converter into an outlet in Italy to use it. Also, be aware that the amount of power that a typical plug in the US outputs is different than in Italy, which means that you may need a voltage converter as well since this particular plug converter does not include a voltage converter.

Type B will work in the US. All the others have specific countries they can be used at. When I lived in Spain I took my plug to Italy and it worked for me. I haven't been to Italy since, but Type C and Type E/F should work in Italy. They are the two I have recently used in Spain, Austria, and Germany.

This plug can be used in Ireland, England & Scotland for sure. I don't understand electrical currant either. I've been told European electrical currant is stronger than our and will burn up a computers, smartphone, etc. so I used this type plug to "downsize" the electrical current. BTW I've been told to purchase a curling iron/ hair dryer in Europe because even with any adaptor the European current will burn it up for some reason. They're not that expensive & it's better to be safe than loose a good hair culer or hair dryer. Also many hotels have some you may borrow at the front desk. Good luck. Enjoy your trip. Ireland is beautiful - I had only one rainy day, but it was quite windy.S This plug can be used in Ireland, England & Scotland for sure. I don't understand electrical currant either.

What UK appliance are you trying to use here in the USA. You can use any of the Simran AC models like Simran AC-100, Simran AC-200, AC-500, AC-1000 etc depending on the wattage of your appliance. Remember to leave enough margin for power spike while buying a transformer. You may call us at 630-775-1700 and we can help you in deciding the model that you would need.

The higher the AMP's & WATT's, the more power the surge protector can handle. I am a paranormal investigator & only need 3 small power cords hooked up so I didn't need the higher Amperage & Wattage. If you are plugging in a TV, computer, printer or other similar electronics, you may want to go with the higher #'s. Hope this helps. I am not an electrician but this is my understanding. Also, the 3 plugs are very close together so you may be forced to either just use 2 plugs at a time or buy a second surge protector. I lucked out, my 3 plugs are very narrow.

Everything you use the outlet for in Europe you will need an adapter. No need in a special one, just a simple basic adapter , that is what I used and had no problems.

You'll need an adapter. See if its for sale on a UK or other European web site. Probably cheaper to get an adapter that you can use with all of your U.S. appliances.

To my understanding, if you have a converter you should be able to use it. It comes with an American style plug so you need the converter to fit your outlet.
