Is this adaptor for voltage 230 in Ireland and Scotland and will it be ok with 110 volt appliances from USA?

The adapter worked beautifully for me. The converter is not needed if you look very carefully at the plugs on your appliances. Reading the fine print most new items will convert automatically and all that is needed is the adapter. You will see it will work on either the 110 or 230-240 volt and all that is needed is the adapter. In fat one hotel had the converter/adapter built in and I just plugged it into the wall like at home.

The adapter is for 230 in Scotland and Ireland. Check with the manufacturer of your 110 appliance to see if your appliance automaticalky adjusts to 230. Also most new appliances have written on the plug in (110v-230v) which means the appliance will automatically adjust to 230. This is not a converter, it is a three prong adapter.

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.

it is for that voltage in ireland/scotland, but it will not work with 110 volt appliances from the USA. You either need to buy a converter that will change the voltage (I think they are pretty expensive) or you need to buy appliances that are dual voltage. I went to dublin in January, and I was able to get a dual voltage hair dryer from Walmart for like $20. My cell phone charger was fine, but just make sure it says both voltages or else it can melt your appliances!

your american appliances would have to have dual voltage.This just makes the plug fit the wall not convert the voltage. phone chargers work well, dual iron may overheat, and i just bought a hairdryer/straightener over there because I go often

The description states '150 watts travel converter wired with UK style plug for use in 220/240V countries'. I looked up Ireland in Wiki (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mains_electricity_by_country) and Ireland has the same plug and voltage as the UK so I assume it will work in that country.

No, by default it doesn't work with 230v, you have to buy transformer or adaptor for that.

The charger is rated for 110-240 V, but the cord is designed for use in the US, Canada, and Mexico. You'll need an inexpensive plug adapter to use it in Ireland. I like the purple ones available here on Amazon. I've used the charger many times on 240 V in Europe, Africa, and Africa and it worked well.

Yes.**The unit will accept 115v and 230v input. HOWEVER, the included power socket is designed for US/Canada outlets. You WILL need an outlet adapter, but you DO NOT need a conversion transformer.

The transformation ratio is 220/110 = 2 or 240/120 = 2. If your voltage is 230 V, then on the low voltage side you will get 230/2 = 115 V. Most appliances have some tolerance to the input voltage e.g. +- 5%. I would check first the label of the appliance, and if 115 V is within that range, it is safe to use this transformer.

I am from Israel and we have 230v. I just bought an udapter and works great. Just that you know, it is quit small so it really deppends on what use you plan with it. Best of luck :) Lior

Yes, However be careful to get a good adapter. New Zealand works on 230/240 all the time, any 110 devise you plug in will go poof!

This is already 110v and u don't need convertor . If you already own 230v then u need to buy convertor from Sears or eBay

If you're going from the US to Europe, you need a step DOWN transformer. Put a step-up transformer on a 230V outlet and you end up with... 460V!

There is a switch on the back of the power supply for either 115 or 230. The power supply lists 110-120V and 220-240V

Mine came with an adapter for plugging into other electrical outlets than the U.S. standards, so I am assuming it will be ok in UK. I have not tried it to verify though.

from what i know, it is designed for use here in the usa which has only 120 volts for these kind of appliances. unless they make a model with 220 volts, don't attempt to use the 110 volt model.

The adapter only allows you to use a European type or Asian type of outlet with a US type plug. It will not convert voltage to 110 used in the US for small appliances and in typical households. Some European and Asian hotels have 110V available in their rooms. However, many do not. You should purchase both and adapter set and a converter to be on the safe side. The converter steps voltage down from the 230V typically used in Europe to 110V which are required for most US small appliances. Both the converter and the adapter units are available through Amazon at a reasonable and with this combination you can charge your cell phone and camera and use your curling iron.

But you realize this takes input of 110 and up converts it to 220 so if you plug it to the wall in norway the 230 input will blow this to pieces. If you want to plug it to 110 and get the 230 output that will be OK but for small appliance only this does not have power so no more than 50W. It will support anything that runs 220 to 240V.

Assuming you're asking whether this is 230 volt... European standard. I bought one and use it at home here in the US.. so I think not. Works fine.

This item is rated 110-120V AC 60Hz with a two prong polarized plug which is the North American norm. The UK uses 230V 50Hz with 3 prongs. Therefore, in order to use this appliance in the UK you will need a Voltage Converter and Plug Adapter. These are often sold in kits in airports and drug stores.
