Voltage Converter - UK Plug to US Socket - 230V to 110V (45W Max)

This converter has a maximum power rating of 45 Watts. Any device drawing more than 45W cannot be used.

No, most hair dryers exceed the 45W limit and will not work with this converter. It is designed for low-power electronic devices only.

You can safely use low-power devices such as laptop chargers, smartphone chargers, tablet chargers, electric shavers, and other small electronics that are rated below 45W.

No, this converter only changes the voltage from 230V to 110V. You will need a separate plug adapter if the physical plug shape of your US device does not fit into the converter's socket.

It is generally not recommended for devices with heating elements (like travel irons or kettles) unless you are absolutely certain their power consumption is below 45W, as most heating elements draw significant power.

CE marking indicates conformity with health, safety, and environmental protection standards for products sold within the European Economic Area (EEA). ROHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) restricts the use of specific hazardous materials found in electrical and electronic products.

Check that the converter is securely plugged into the UK socket and that the US appliance is correctly plugged into the converter. Verify that the US appliance's power consumption is below the 45W limit.

This likely indicates the appliance is exceeding the 45W limit, causing the converter's safety mechanism to engage. Discontinue use with this appliance and use only devices rated below 45W.

Slight warmth is normal for power converters. However, if it becomes excessively hot, immediately unplug it and discontinue use. Ensure the appliance is within the 45W limit and that ventilation is not obstructed.

Immediately unplug the converter and do not use it again. This indicates a serious internal fault or overload. Contact customer support if possible.
