Digital camera reviews of 50-WATT International Converter
Digital camera Review: Blown fuse
Summary: 2 Stars
Maybe I have bad luck with international power converters. I was using this device in Australia, and it stopped working. After reading other reviews for this product, I immediately suspected a blown fuse. The little plastic door to get to the the fuse was practically impossible to open. After nearly breaking the case to get the stupid thing open, I discovered that yep, it was blown. If you get this unit, I suggest packing extra fuse or two, because you'll have a hard time shopping for obscure electronics in a foreign country!Digital camera Review: Didn't work
Summary: 1 Stars
I am so disappointed. I bought this adapter for a big trip and the first time I used the adapter it flashed power on and off and then proceeded to break. By the time I got back from my trip, the "return" window was closed. I can't seem to find a way to contact Amazon to ask about this.... so I am leaving this review. I had to buy another adapter while traveling... which worked just fine. ):Digital camera Review: Great product
Summary: 5 Stars
This product worked very well up until I did not follow it's instructions. I started using it to recharge my laptop (65W) after my wall adapter broke (most laptops have a built in current converter box on their wall cable). After doing this a couple times, and the converter heating up a ton, the little fuse broke. So I replaced the fuse and it worked beautifully again.
Pros:
1. Fuse - means that if you misuse the product (exceed it's rated 50W), you can get a new fuse and it will work again
2. high quality product (though that means it's heavy)
Cons:
1. Unit is heavy
Digital camera Review: Great product

This small device worked flawless in France and UK for three weeks (using plug adaptors when needed) charging my Palm, digital camera and iPod. Excellent choice for the price.Digital camera Review: Jensen 50 watts converter
