To determine which below Step Down transformer you need please check these five questions first:

1. What is the total watts used by appliances to be connected to the Transformer?

Select from our Stepdowns range below based on how many watts your device uses*.

E.g: Playstation 3 uses 380 Watts so you need 500 watt stepdown transformer.

2. Does your appliance have a motor ?

If a motor is included then you should select a stepdown rating at least 25% higher than your motor as a buffer. Motors have higher power use on the stepdowns and startup currents which need to be allowed for. Most motors have a rating plate on them with their Power and Amperage rating.

3. Does your appliance have a mechanical timing device? If so, how critical is this timing device?

If a timing device is included the speed of the device may change due to the frequency change, 60Hz to 50Hz (eg old clocks, motors / fans)
4. Do you know the Amps of your device? - if so you can calculate the watts required:

Calculated as Watts = Amps x 110 Volts (eg 5 A x 110 V  = 500 watts)
5. Do you wish to use multiple appliances from one stepdown?

Check total watts of all devices this must be less than the VA rating of the stepdown & get a US Powerboard 

Note: If you need higer then 2000+ VA see here
