Dual Voltage Converter and Travel Adapter Plugs.

HI-LO DUAL CONVERTER KIT:  ELECTRICAL CURRENT in most countries outside of North America is 220v, so travelers taking North American 110v appliances must also take a step-down converter or transformer.  Travel electrical converters such as our Hi-Lo Dual Converter can be used with electric appliances such as hair dryers, hot pots and steam irons.  Converters are much lighter weight than transformers, but can only be used for a maximum of three hours at a time.
WALL OUTLETS in the rest of the world do not accept the standard North American 3-pin plug.  Adapter plugs, which have a foreign wall outlet configuration on one side and accept North American plugs on the other, are a must for most travel outside of North America.  The Hi-Lo Dual Converter Kit includes four polarized adapter plugs (for Great Britain, India-Hong Kong-Singapore, Europe, and Australia-North America-South America).

The Hi-Lo Converter has two settings: HI, for electric applicances between 26 and 1875 watts, and LO, for electronic appliances between 0 and 25 watts.  The converter accpts 2-pin, polarized appliances.  There is a safety cut-off switch and auto re-start to prevent damage to appliances in a power surge.  The adapter plugs included with the travel electrical converter kit are for Great Britain, India-Hong Kong-Singapore, Europe, and Australia-North America-South America.  The kit includes a soft pouch, instructions, and a free "World Wide Electricity and Teleplug-Ins Guide" (24th edition) which gives essential information about traveling with electronic and electric products, plus a country-by-country list of voltages, cycles, wall outlet and telephone jack configurations.  Size: 4 1/2" x 4 1/4" x 2 3/4".  Weight: 12 oz.

Product No. 1040001F, Hi-Lo Dual Converter Kit, $46.00 each.

NOTES:  Converters and transformers use different methods to step down the current, so they cannot be used interchangeably.  Electronic appliances such as computers, CD players an dradios can only be used with transformers; do NOT try to use the Hi-Lo Converter with electronic appliances.
You must always be sure the wattage of the appliance falls within the range of the converter or transformer being used.  The Hi-Lo Converter can accept electric applicances between 26 and 1875 watts on the HI setting, and electronic appliances between 0 and 25 watts on the LO setting.
Much more information can be found in the "World Wide Electricity and Teleplug-Ins Guide" which comes free with the Hi-Lo Dual Converter Kit.
