Traveling With Electronics?

Walkabout Converter

Tired of worrying if you have the correct adapter? Tired of worrying if your electronics are dual voltage? We have the solution. The Walkabout Solution® automatically adjusts incoming voltage, whether if you are in a 110-120V country (Like North America) or 220-240V country. (Everywhere else.) Output voltage is always correct for North American products. Even better, the built-in USB port also charges cell phones and iPads, so two items can be charged at once. The built-in adapters work worldwide -- the enclosed Euro adapter even allows for recessed European connections. Indicator lights indicate power status for AC and USB power ports. Protected by a thermal detection circuit, which will shut the unit off if it gets too hot. Just let the unit cool and plug back in. Fuse protected. Tiny and lightweight: Product dimensions: 1.9 x 1.6 x 1.8 inches; 3.8 ounces. USB charging current is 1000mA continuous.

Laptop, smart phone, iPad, Kindle -- it's all you need. No dual voltage worries. No adapter worries.

Rated for electronics up to 250 watts.
Thermal protection against overheating. Fuse protected.

Confused about international electricity?

Everybody is. What converter do I need? What adapter do I need? What's the difference between an adapter and a converter, anyway? Even computer hackers and rocket scientists throw up their hands trying to solve this dilemma. We've solved it. Our Hi-Lo Combination Converter/Transformer Kit is the solution to a problem only modern mankind has faced. Contains a dual circuit converter\transformer with five plug-in adapters which fit almost every 2-pin (non grounded) electrical outlet Homo sapiens has invented. The converter/transformer has a high switch for appliances between 50 and 1650 watts and a low switch for equipment under 50 watts. Accepts 2-pin, polarized equipment. Low setting can be used for items like cell phones, camera or Kindle chargers; high setting is for non-electronic items like hair dryers. Our Hi-Lo Converter/Transformer is the cream of the crop, and contains a safety fuse to prevent damage to appliances. Everything fits into a convenient carrying case. Surprisingly small and lightweight: 5 1/2 x 3 x 2 inches. Weight 14 oz. ROHS compliant. Adapters included: # 300 United Kingdom, # 380 UK Shaver, # 400 Europe, #600 Australia / China, and # 700 North America. (Be sure to check wattage of your appliance before operation. If taking a flat iron, check with the manufacturer as some cannot be used internationally even with a converter.)

Low setting is for low wattage electronics like cell phones, cameras and battery chargers.
High setting is for electric appliances up to 1650 watts, like hairdryers.
Not for laptops. If your laptop is dual voltage get the All-in-One Adapter. If not dual voltage or if you are unsure, get the Walkabout Solution.
Not for continuous use.
