I can go to Israel with my American 110 devices and use this to convert them to the 220 outlets or do I need an additional converter?

You will still need a plug adapter for Israel so you can plug the VCT power strip into the wall outlet. The male connection that would plug into the wall is a normal US three prong grounded plug, so you will need a type C plug for non grounded and a type H for grounded. This does not convert voltage so if your devices do not support 220 volt, which most do these days, you will need a voltage converter. Here is a great site for all types of outlets worldwide. http://www.worldstandards.eu/electricity/plug-voltage-by-country/

You need a converter as the outlets can take both 220 and 110V but the inlet is for 110V, so you need a converter for the input 220-110V.

The VCT power strip has a US three prong grounded plug. So you will need an adapter to plug the male end of the VCT plug into the wall socket in Israel. They use a two prong type C for non grounded, which is used in all of Europe and a Type H for grounded. Here is a great site that has sockets for the world with pictures. http://www.worldstandards.eu/electricity/plug-voltage-by-country/

This is not a converter. Its just a plug. Your devices should be capable to work on both 110-220V.

You will need an additional converter. The strip is capable of using both voltages but does not convert voltages

Most computer-related stuff comes with plugs that 'automatically' handle 100-240v (or thereabouts) -- so this power block works GREAT for THEM. However, if the device / item does NOT do the power conversion, then you will have to get a (separate) power converter. The 'value' of the power strip is NOT in ANY 'conversion' -- rather it is just a (convenient) multi-format 'plug (format/type) adapter'...

It is not a voltage converter. just a power strip, will pass whatever the source voltage it gets. So you should get an additional converter.

Not a converter. It has a switch on it where you can change the voltage. You will need an adapter plug, though, for the country where it will be used. There are several different ones. We travelled to Jordan, turkey and Ireland last year, and so far Several countries in Africa and Ireland this year. I think I used about four different adapters. Hope this helps.

its a basic 110 volt outlet here in N.America...you might need a converter if you only have 220.

Adapters are not converters (these are adapters). If you are traveling to a country which uses 220-230 volt power, you need to look at your 110 volt electronic device to see whether it can safely run on 220-230. If it can, you need the proper adapter only (adapters vary between countries - be careful to purchase correct adapter). If it cannot (if it only runs on 110), then you need a converter and an adapter. Depending on the cost of the item, you may decide to purchase the item overseas in lieu of carrying a converter.

The one I bought was designed for use in the USA. I would think you could either use this one with an adapter for the outlet or find one that is already compatible with 220.

I would say no. You would most likely fry the unit. There are plenty of tutorials on the web to convert your 220 to 110, however. If you don't feel comfortable with electrical work, I cannot imagine the conversion would be that expensive. Take the time to change the voltage.

This item is not a convertor. If your appliance accepting both 220v and 110v you should be fine. You can probably see that on your power chord/unit, labeled "input".

This works on 110, you would need an adapter to use this in the Middle East.

I am not sure. We had 110v outlet in our apartment. But I believe it is safe to say you will need the adapter. We are longer there and I dont have the product with me, we just moved back to the USA.

Yes, with a converter. Amazon has two converters in the $13 TO $14 range. You need to convert from 220 VOLTS to 110 VOLTS (not watts). Search for "110V to" let it fill out the rest.

No you can't ,but if you buy adebtor, which is use for exchange power from 110 to 220 , yes ,you can use it .

Assuming your outlets are a standard type, an adapter is needed. Plugging into 220V without an adapter will instantly burn it up. Example see: http://www.amazon.com/Simran-SMF-200-Converter-International-Countries/dp/B000W9DJ1Q/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1365627216&sr=8-1&keywords=220+to+110+converter

Actually, I bought the item and checked by myself. The adapter works with both 110 and 220 volt. You just need a basic converter for the outlet.

I suggest you speak with the seller about this. The one I got was for US 110V outlets so you would need a converter. Maybe others sell the ones for UK but I do not know. This one is for US.

No AB, this is only an adaptor to be able to convert your appliance plug to fit in the outlets of other country's. what you need to convert the 220 volt down to 110 volts is a travel voltage converter. this is a transformer that changes 220volts to 110 volts. I hope this helps. Later Steve

No, unfortunately it won't work in Israel. You need to get a Type C or Type H adapter which you can buy atThe Good Guys, or any other well sorted hard ware shop. Be aware though as Israeli plugs are not assafe as Australian, US or European power plugs because they are not earthed.Check out the following site: http://www.worldstandards.eu/electricity/plugs-and-sockets/h/Have a fun tripMarianne

No, it is not a converter...just an adapter!.....I took a flat iron and a hair dryer that had both 120 and 220 voltage...the adapter worked just fine in Israel.
