Digital camera Review: Burned out.
Summary: 1 Stars
This product burned out the second time it was used. It was used first with a cell phone charger and then a laptop computer. I left in the trash can in our hotel in Rome.

Digital camera Review: Crazy shipping cost
Summary: 2 Stars
Shipping cost is same as product price. I would rather buy it from a shop.Digital camera Review: Decent transformer
Summary: 5 Stars
We purchased 5 of these for our move to Sweden 6 months ago and all are still working. Three are used on a continuous basis for clock radio/CD players while the other two are used occasionally for chargers and other things that aren't universal. The transformers get a little warm but not enough to be an issue. The devices we use on this transformer are only about 30 watts so I can't say how it will perform when you get closer to 200W. Just to be safe, I purchased transformers that were more than double of what I needed.
The only thing I don't like is the fact that the transformers aren't properly grounded even though there is a hole for grounded prong on the output. It would have been pretty simple to add proper grounding so it doesn't make sense to me that they didn't do it.
Overall, they do what they are supposed to do and were relatively inexpensive.
Digital camera Review: Did not do the job I bought it for - Buyer Beware
Summary: 2 Stars
This converter did not handle a conversion of 135w electrical device even though it states it can handle up to 200w. Does handle miniature conversions alright, however still gets a bit hot. Do not recommend this product to anyone using more than 100w. Shame on the false advertisement.Digital camera Review: Died after 5 minutes of usage with 175W device, No Fuse!
Summary: 2 Stars
If need it for up to 100W device, it's great product. If you need for more - BE AWARE! Died after 5 minutes of usage with 175W device...
Moreover, it has no fuse (Unlike the mentioned above). Believe me, I disassembled it and tore it apart. NO FUSE.
There's a 20$ went to the garbage...
