Will this power a hair dryer?

This should be able to power a hair dryer however I would check the wattage output on the hair dryer if it is less thanow 1500 watts you are good to go just remember to only have the hair dryer plugged into the inverter

Yes! You will need a European adapter/plug-in, and use the dryer on the lowest wattage setting. I used this on the higher wattage setting and accidentally blew out the power in the villa we had in Italy. Easy to fix but embarrassing.

It should but you should watch out how many voltage per appliance you are using. Mine worked fine to charge my cell phone and camera but blew up when I went to use a hair dryer.

The adapter worked fine. My daughter used it for her iPad, laptop computer and cell phone. She didn't use with a hair dryer. Hope this helps.

It should since the light doesn't pull a lot of amps. I'm in Austria right now and using mine to charge my laptop, my Nook, and iPhones. I also use it for my curling iron......but you can't use it with a blow dryer. Our friends here did that a few days ago and burned up her hair dryer and tripped the hotel breaker. :D

the product is wired only for 110-120 volts, so you would need a voltage converter. it only uses 10 watts, so you don't need a converter that can power a hair dryer. the issue of 50hz instead of 60hz may actually affect intensity of the vibrating action. don't know the answer to that one. contact Wahl?

I am not an electrician but by looking at it I think it would work. My husband looked at it as well and he agreed but need to check the volts. I had an adapter when traveling through Europe. Our products in America required a stronger volts that the adapter didn't provide therefore I had a difficult time using my products. It blew up my hair dryer.

You do understand this device has to be hooked up to a 12V car battery to work right? It will run your blow dryer but it converts 12V DC current to 110 V AC current. John

I can't remember but I will say I feel it's not a good hair dryer overall. It's not very powerful if power is what you're wanting in the blower part.

Yes it will hook up the basically any hair dryer. I would not purchase this though after several times using it the material had melted holes in it from the dryer. It even melted part of my dryer.

It might not have enough power for a hair dryer. Mostly for electronic devices.

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

No idea .... but since hair dryers and other appliances are usable with the appropriate adapters for the electric plug, I would assume this is as well.

Buy the power converter set that they use for shavers, hair dryers etc and that will work.

It's not a converter, it's just an adapter. But it does have surge protection in it. You can use this for your phone and most electrical devices, but I wouldn't mess around with a hair dryer to be on the safe side. I mostly used this for my Android phone.

No, it won't, this is for a 110V lower wattage appliance. True, the plugs for 110V vs 220V appliances are different. This works well for a regular grounded plug/small appliance, but you have to check the watt limit for the plug and the appliance. The thing about a dryer is it is almost always 220V (V for volts), regular small appliances are 110Vs. An electric dryer or stove uses alot of electricity, and it must be plugged into a higher power 220V outlet, this switch works only with lower power 110V appliances and outlets. Confusing, but important...

The hair dryer is only meant to run on 100v. The US's voltage is 120v, meaning that the hair dryer is being supplied with 20% more voltage. As a result of the increase in voltage, the hair dryer will consume 44% more power and get 44% hotter. This is dangerous so please buy a transformer with a higher wattage (2000 watt - 3000 watt). The hair dryer uses 1200w so do not be cheap and try to buy a 500 watt or 1000 watt transformer; the fuse will blow out when you turn on the hair dryer.
