  1. RESIDENTIAL USE OF 220 VOLTS VOLTAGE CONVERTERS When electrical ‘output’ and ‘requirement’don’t match, gadgets and appliances can get damaged. Therefore, voltage converters and transformers were invented to convert the electrical output into the appropriate level required to power up certain devices safely. Voltage converters and transformers do the same job but are different in many ways. Voltage converters reduce voltage current by chopping the sine waves in half while transformers change the length of these sine waves. Voltage converters are therefore not compatible with certain electronics that need full sine wave to operate. You can only use them with a voltage transformer. Some electronic appliances like a hair dryer can safely operate on a voltage converter because it does not require half of the full sine wave. Why should you choose a voltage converter? Although this type of equipment may not be compatible with all kinds of home appliances and devices, it is still useful. Converters are less expensive, lightweight, compact, and more convenient. They can also support high wattages. If the converter that you have is rated 220 volts, this means that it can operate within a voltage range of 220 volts and 240 volts. You can use it for different home appliances that need 220 volts. The following are few of the things that you should consider when buying 220v voltage converter: •Think about the size and wattages of the devices you are going to use. To get the right size, make a list of every device and appliance that you are going to run on a converter. •Get converters that have 50% higher wattage than your total requirement. Some appliances require a huge surge of power when they are turned on. Therefore, you need converters with high power handling capacity so you can safely use the appliances. •Get a stabilizer if your area often experiences power fluctuations. Understanding all of these will help you maximize the usage of your voltage converters, especially at home. Take note that 220-volt converters vary in terms of quality and reliability. Don't buy a unit just because it’s the cheapest. Consider also the brand as well as the reputation of the seller. You can’t go wrong with online electronic shops that are acknowledged by organizations such as Dun & Bradstreet.
