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.

The box does read "Dual voltage for worldwide travel". That means you won't need a voltage converter in order to use it. However, many countries have differently shaped outlets, so you might need a plug adapter.

I don't think you need a converter, all electronics today have it built-in. The only thing you will need is a 240v curling iron/straightener, even the converter's seem to burn out their motor's. I used the adapter for my phone, kindle, camera, shaver. My wife bought a 240v curling iron someone in our group used their 120v with a converter and it burnt out.

I have not used it at all because it is unfortunately not what I thought it is. I needed a converter, to use electronics from Europe in the US. I'm sorry that I can't help you.

I have one and it is not. You would need to use a converter to use in Europe.

You will need a world Travel adapter for overseas. Try a Radio Shack/Office Max. Have you checked to see if Amazon has travel adapters. they read some reviews.

not directly. you would need a converter like you need if you go to Europe to use your appliances over there.

We just returned from Ireland in Sept - all of our electronics worked with a converter. I would imagine that would be the case with this as well. I can't say enough how happy we are with this purchase. We travel with it all the time and always get questions from people nearby. I would recommend the bag carry case to make it easier to move around.

When I travel, I always carry a "step-up" converter just in case as most hotels these days have both outlets.I don't wish to speak for the manufacturer. Ask them to be sure.

If your machine only operates on 110-120 voltage, the answer is yes. However, many electronic devices operate on dual voltage, and do not need a transformer/converter. Check your machine/device, and if the power adapter or other area of the machine indicates "input 110-220v," you do not need a converter/transformer. If it only indicates "input 110v," then you do need a converter/transformer.

As far as I understand it, you have to buy converters for any electrical items that you want to use in another country. You may also have to buy the correctly shaped electrical plug that will fit into the outlets, which then attaches to the the converter. You should put this issue into a search. I did it recently for a different country I will be traveling to. You'd be amazed at all the configurations that other countries use.

The supplied power supply is marked "100 - 240 Volts, 50/60 Cycles". That means that you only need and adapter plug to go from US standard to the European standard like you would find anywhere where travel supplies are sold.

Not unless you have a converter/adapter. You can buy a converter/adapter at most any store that sells electronics/hardware. Not expensive and a must have if you take ANY plug in device to Europe.

You shouldn't need any extra converter aside from what's included in the kit. I didn't have any issues with devices/appliances during my travels. Just make sure your hotel can accommodate the wattage of your device.

....I need to know this question too as i might move to the UK at some point and they use 220!

You will need to get a converter to use this item internationally. Inexpensive, it is worth having for your assorted travel items.

Yes....you just need the appropriate voltage adapter for the country you are traveling to.
