Eureka Moment: Handy Converter/Transformer for your Tools

Sofia Kasım 30, 2021

Remember my post regarding my ~~darn-it's-110v~~ Hot Tools Professional Gold Curling Iron? I have been searching around for a lightweight transformer! I've seen enough bulky converter/transformer at home and in stores! I could never tote this around on gigs! *panicking*

Thank goodness I got an Engineer for a brother and he suggested I purchase a travel size converter. I told him the specs of my curling iron then he recommended me to purchase 150watt max converter! After searching high and low, the geek gal found a perfect sized converter for her spoiled curling iron! :)

Newstar NF150 AC-AC Converter

150Watt Max

Round and Flat Outlet

made in: Taiwan

Php599.75 (approx $13.00)

I did some research first prior to purchasing and its perfect that the brand is Newstar. The reason why I purchased this brand, aside from its size is because I have used the same brand for rechargeable batteries and I don't have problems with it!

7 days full warranty upon purchase and I can easily take this back to the shop if there's something wrong. Input AC220V/Output AC110V or you can change the setting to Input AC110V/Output AC220V, works for both round and flat outlet. Which is perfect for travel as well!

Glad I have my own handy-dandy converter! Huge nerd! You know, I'll do anything to make my Hot Tools Curling Iron work!

Keep in mind, do check with a professional on what maximum wattage you should purchase for a converter! I purchased this at Electronics Boutique, Robinson's Place Ermita Manila. You can purchase similar product (same or different brands) at your local electronic shops!
