Women's blow dryer require more than 1000W to operate with heat on. The good ones are on the 2000W range. Once you start blowing with heat you will eventually burn the fuse. You have to use a step up transformer with the appropriate rating. Unfortunately, any step up transformer of 1000W and above I have seen are massive (like 10lbs). By chance I have one 1000W and another 1500W. I use the second for my European expresso machine and works fine. I tried one 1850W blow dryer on both and the difference is noticeable and even in the big one it is not like it used to be in Singapore @ 220V outlet. Bottom line: It is cheaper and easier to have a second 110V blow dryer. **Q: Will it work for my air purifier? this is written on the plug: 120v ac 60hz 55w** A: If your air purifier input 120V AC then you don't need this transformer if using here in the US but if you using outside US with 220v~ input voltage then u can used this Xmer by setting the correct slider switch input voltage? The your output voltage must be 110-120V and the incoming or wall voltage must be 220-240V. **Q: I have a 220v floor standing osculating fan that reads 48W on the info label. I would like to run the fan all night. Is this going to work for me?** A: Yes, this will work with your Fan. **Q: will it work with an xbox one?** A: No. Here's why:According to MS: Don't use an unlicensed accessory, such as a non-Microsoft replacement PSU, or any accessory that plugs in between the console and the PSU.Don't use non-standard power sources, such as generators or inverters, even if the voltage and frequency appear acceptable. Only use AC power that is provided by a standard wall outlet.Important Microsoft does not license any non-Microsoft accessories that plug into the Xbox One console's power socket. The use of any accessory other than the standard Xbox One PSU may damage your console and void your console warranty.Also the LiteFuze box...while it says 300 watt it has a warning it is not to be used for high power products like high dryers, power tools etc and if used continusoulsy it should not exceed 150w. From what I have seen the XBox one is rated around 230w. Thanks for the inquiry. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent well-made converter, but watch out for a few things. *by on Reviewed in the United States 24 March 2015* Excellent product. I bought several of these and I actually use one as an everyday step-down converter for a TV and home theater I bought from USA where the voltage and my products are rated at 110-120V (in my country the national grid is 240V). There is a small switch which you set to your mains voltage - [An aside here: the values on this switch are 115V and 230V, but almost all appliances will work fine within a certain range, ie 110-120V and 220 to 240V]. The converter upconverts the incoming 110-120V to 220-240V output, or downconverts 220-240V to 110-120V by doing a simple 2-to-1 or 1-to-2. There is no conversion for the current (amps), only for the voltage.I sometimes hear a low buzzing noise from the converter when it has been running for several hours. I initially thought it was that particular unit, so i switched it, but the new one also had the same issue. But anyway even after a few months of this there doesn't seem to be any bad effects from the buzzing noise, and there's no overheating at all, so it's still 5 stars. And that acts as an alert that I've been watching TV too long! Some have complained that they received busted units, but all the 3 500W units I ordered in Oct.2014 were perfectly fine and intact.Others have said, and Litefuze themselves also advise this, but it bears repeating. If you plan on using it for more than an hour or so at a time, buy a converter that's at least double the wattage of the combined gadgets you'll be connecting to the converter. So in my case the stuff I'm connecting to the converter are: a TV rated at 142W, a Vizio soundbar rated about 10W, and my home theater at 12W. The math comes to 142+10+12=164W, so I needed one that's at least 164 x 2 = 328W. The closest to this is the 500W converter- it doesn't hurt to have the extra capacity.A few niggles:- I dont like the buzzing sound after several hours of use, but it's not loud and doesnt seem to have any more ill effects.- More serious, I wish the small switch to change the voltage was better hidden or more difficult to access. I have it set to '230V', so it converts my 240V to 120V. But if a bumbling someone were to accidentally change it to the '115V' setting (which is easy to do with the easily accessible switch), then I think what would happen is the 1-to-2 upconversion. So my actual 240V would be output as 480V, frying my electronics almost instantly! [Again, this is just my opinion based on my understanding of how the thing works and I'm no electrician. If this is wrong someone please comment on this post and correct me - I'll alter it immediately].- The unit itself is quite heavy, about 300-500grams (half a kg). So take that into consideration if you are planning to use it for travel. I dont, so the weight isn't an issue for me.Overall though, these negatives are still minor enough for it to earn a full 5 stars.
