Select from our Step downs transformers based on how many watts your device uses.
Choose the transformer rated above your devices watts usage.
E.g: Playstation 3 uses 380 Watts so you need the 500 watt rated stepdown transformer.
If a motor is included then you should select a stepdown rating approx 25% higher than your motor as a buffer.
Motors have a 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.
If so, how critical is this timing device?The Transformer cannot change the Frequency. It is 50Hz
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/microwaves ) Most modern electronic devices should not be affected. Read more about frequency
Calculated as Watts = Amps x 110Volts (eg 5 A x 110 V = 550 watts)
Check total watts of all devices this must be less than the VA (Watt) rating of the stepdown & get a US Powerboard.

Once ordered, the step down transformer was delivered really quickly only taking less than 2 days from order to receiving the item in Canberra. However, the item sent was the step down for Japan, and not North American. A quick telephone call and Tortech issued the postal return paperwork, and almost simultaneously sent the correct American step down, even before they received my returned step down for Japan.
While there was a small error in the process, the customer service in response to the error was great. Many thanks for your good, prompt customer service.
