if I have dual voltage for my blow dryer and flat iron will this be safe to use in Ireland?

Last summer, I used two of these to power up and charge all my dual voltage appliances. I used them in both the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland. No problems! I found the hotel-provided hairdryers to be very unsatisfactory and was so glad I had brought my own.

I've only been to England and Scotland, but I imagine it'll be fine for Ireland.

Yes, I think so. If your device says 110/240 or something close to that, this adaptor will do the job. We did use it in Ireland. Also note, that all hotels we stayed in throughout United Kingdom provided hair dryers in each room, so you may not even need to take a blow dryer. We didn't and each hotel had one in the room.

I would check where you are staying. I used mine for my phone and camera charger in Kenya. Another girl used hers for her blow dryer and blew a fuse. The whole hotel's electricity went out. We were told do not use blow dryers due to the high voltage.

I have this appliance and like it very much. It is my second one in approximately 15yrs. It has a US-style electrical plug; which is to say it is designed for use with 120VAC outlets. I have successfully used similar dryers/curling irons with adapters while traveling in several western European countries and elsewhere in the world and don't remember any problems - but only while traveling. I can't say if this will work well on a long-term basis. Good luck!

You will need to check your flat iron voltage - UK uses 240v and USA is 110v so unless you have dual voltage flat irons such as GHD then you may also need a converter. My UK flat iron/straightners (not dual voltage) blew when I used with only an adaptor plug like this, in the US. So - you can use dual voltage flat irons, buy some flat irons in the US to use there, buy a voltage converter or chance it and hope they don't blow!

It is dual voltage (you can change the voltage with the button on the handle). You need the adapter so the plug will fit into the various outlets out of country. The adapter is used just for outlets. The voltage (dual voltage) keeps you from having to buy a converter. Your question seems to combine two different things. Adapter are to plug into the wall. Converters change the voltage going into the appliance. When out of country if you can't change the voltage 120 (US) to 250 (other countries) you will burn up your appliance. On this dryer when you change from 120's to the 250, like the other person mentioned, it will only work on high.

Not if You are living in ireland or The uk as The voltage is not compatable. I could never use this product without fear of electrocion

Yes it will. I just came back from Italy and used this with a dual voltage Flat Iron I purchased on Amazon. It worked great. No convertor needed.

Yes. I am international flight attendant. I plug everything ( kindle, phone, music ) into the power strip. All newish electronics can take either voltage . Older hair dryers or flat irons will burn up as they are only 110v. You will need a plug adapter. It is not a converter, but am adapter... You should look for one that has some depth to the pins. Many plugs in Europe are inset, so the depth really pays off. Travel sites, or Amazon I a sure have plug adapters for sale. Mine has plugs for Europe, Shia, etc. All in one.

When I travel to Europe, even Russia, I always take a duel voltage hair dryer. That way I don't have to worry about blowing circuits.

I've never been, but I assume that the UK adapter piece would apply for Ireland too. But after googling "Ireland Electrical Outlet" it appears to be the same. Happy tails!

will this hair dryer work in dual voltage? 125-240v? in countries outside of America

Depends on what you are connecting with them. My iphone in Italy worked, my curling iron worked because it was dual voltage, but my Oral B toothbrush required a converter for the voltage. You need to read the voltage requirements on your device.

no this iron is not equipped dual voltage only good for 110/120v enviroment

I'm not sure. I live in the United States and traveled to Australia and it worked great. It I'd duel voltage so it should work. I love this flat iron! I loved it so much, that I purchased another one. Sometimes they stop making a favorite item and I wanted a back up just in case. I take this flat iron anytime I go somewhere it's such a convenient size and works great!

Yes, this straightener is dual voltage. I'm currently in Egypt and mine works great.

I have not used this particular one in Europe . I was in India recently and had another dual voltage flat iron with me....not a professional one like this. It heated up beautifully with me using my wall adapter. After doing half of my hair, though, it suddenly blew up, and I had to throw the flat iron in the trash. Hopefully that wouldn't happen to this particular model, since it's a professional one, but can't say definitely if it would work well or not. It should, as it's dual voltage, but then again, the one I used was supposed to work in Europe, as well, and didn't.

I don't know what dual voltage is. if you mean like over seas, probably with a adapter, never had a problem with other curling irons with the adapters overseas

It might. I returned this product because the actual plug and flat iron did not say they were dual voltage. Upon returning the seller said it was dual voltage. All of my other appliances (tablet, cell phone, different flat iron) all had dual voltage information on the plug -- and they all worked great in Italy with a simple plug adapter.
