Ladies that have been to Europe
This is probably a dumb question but wanted to ask you ladies before I ask on the travel board. When we went to Europe last year we bought a European adapter but it totally fried my flat iron (that was pretty much the only reason we bought one).
Christian said it might not be good for heating elements and that we might try a European transformer. Anyone know anything about this stuff or the difference in the 2? Or if I need something completely different? My flat iron is only 30W. I really don't want to go 10 days without my flat iron but I really don't wanta fry my new one again, lol. Thanks ladies
Warning
No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml
Re: Ladies that have been to Europe
I've never heard of a European transformer, but I just wanted to say Good Luck finding a solution. My friend's flat iron was fried on day 1 of our 2 week trip from using her adapter. Have you read any reviews on the transformer? Hopefully others will have some good info for you.
Btw... you're leaving in 2 days!! You must be so excited!
It's been a long time since I've been there, but I seem to remember frying a curling iron back in the day when I only used the adapter. I picked up the iron and the plastic tip fell off with melted ooze trailing behind! So, you will need to use a transformer to convert the voltage. However, I remember having some appliances that have a switch to choose between a 110V or 220(?)V setting (sorry, not sure where to buy), then you are OK with just an adapter.
Have an awesome trip!
There is a difference-but its a pita. My rec is to buy a cheap one when you get there. But if you really want to take yours, Amazon and brookstone have a dual converter/adaptor. Also-look on your flat iron label to see if it is rated for universal voltage of 100-240V AC. If it is-then an the convertor can be used without frying it.
