230/110 volt Xfmrs, hi/lo watts

John Alexander Berry Video 3 months ago

Description

230/110 volt transformers: 200 watts and 3000 watts.

Maximum wattage for a portable fan heater in the U.S. is 1500 watts.

Australian standard mains voltage is 220 - 240 volts, so you can operate a portable fan heater rated at 2400 watts (maximum)

The small 200 watt transformer would allow me to operate most American domestic appliances without having to resort to using the 3000 watt transformer.

I could easily run an American vintage tube radio off the 200 watt transformer, but so far I haven't seen any American valve radios that I would consider buying as the majority of them are AC/DC sets, unlike most Australian valve radios.
