Check the voltage on your ac adapter's transformer. If it says like 110-240 volts (or something similar) then you are all set. Just think of your transformer as converting the voltage automatically. The only other thing you need to check for is if you need a plug adapter so that it'd fit in the electrical outlet in England. It'd just be a simple adapter.

In my experience, you will need a voltage converter for almost everything. Definitely anything worth more than $15, as it's really easy to ruin electronics from power surges or incorrect voltage. For longer trips abroad, I try to buy small appliances like hairdryers there so that I don't have to worry about it.

This machine runs on 120volts. If you are an international buyer, you will need a converter for this machine.

You need a European to US converter they sent you a model designed for overseas.

I can't speak to either on personal experience. Specific locations may vary within a country. Try <www.walkabouttravelgear.com> as one source of information for adapters world wide. Refer to their " world-wide electrical index". Do be sure to check your appliances for compatibility with 220V power. That is a universal in Africa. Most new appliances are, but will burn up if they are not. Transformers and converters are available, and not cheap for reliable ones.

No, you don't need a converter since this is a converter. You should check that this works wherever it is you're going. I bought this for a trip to Israel.

If you "Google" "Do I need an electric adaptor, you will find the information you need. Here is the link: http://askville.amazon.com/electrical-converter-travel-Australia-month/AnswerViewer.do?requestId=2564574 It states that you do need both an adaptor and a converter.

No--but it may require an adapter if you are traveling abroad. Works great.

You will need a converter to ensure proper functioning without ruining your appliance. Check with a certified electrician to see what they recommend.

Yes, of course it's good for international travel. All you need is a converter from the places you're going to plug the unit into the wall.

Just now got your question. NO, you don't need a converter, but you DO need an adapter so that you can plug it into European wall outlets. (The adapters vary from region to region so make sure you have the right adapter for wherever you are going.) For future information about anything electric, just check the plug area and if it says 120/240, it's international! Hope this is not too late to help you.

It just means IF YOU USE the proper equipment he device can convert. When I traveled to Ireland I used this and other electric rollers. You need a converter and adapters. Google traveling with electrical devices, I learned a lot online. There are different converters and adapters for different countries. READ ALL THE. Information before buying because if yiu dont have the correct one you can burn out your device. I chose a converter power strip because I had iphone, ipad etc at night charging and multiple items in the a.m. Hope this helps, happy and safe travelling!

Not sure, but I think there is a universal travel adapter to convert to 110 volts for travel over seas so that most US items can be used there.

This device is not a converter. It does not convert one voltage to another. If it's 220 in, it's 220 out. If it's 110 in, it's 110 out. Most of your electronics can handle either voltage. You just need a plug adapter for the various countries. However, what this is great for is that you often only have one outlet in your hotel room, and several devices to charge (computers, tablets, phone, cameras, etc.). You can plug this in your one outlet and charge many devices at once, but they all have to be able to handle the voltage of the host country.

As far as I know, you can purchase a converter and it should operate OK. Check luggage department for travel accessories.

I don't believe the converter would be sufficient. I got a transformer converter- which is rated for "electronics".It's a bit heavy, but it is a reliable device. I also found it on Amazon, so search for converter/adapter for electronics.

This has all the adapters and connections in it. No need for any converters. I used it for my cell phone, fitbit and laptop. My co-traveler did it for the camera.
