Step-down Voltage Conversion?
This Power Bright VC1500 Step-down and Step-Up Voltage Converter
(also described as a step down or step up voltage transformer) is for use in the UK to power electrical equipment from the USA. What it does is convert UK 220 - 240 volts to US 110 - 120 volts. The output is pure AC and the voltage converter can be used with all appliances rated 0 - 1500W. This voltage converter will take US two pin and three pin plugs.

What Can I Use It With?
Everything with a rating of 1500 Watts or below (although in practice it is a good idea to allow some margin for error). This would include just about everything from computers, TVs and Hi-fis to most heavy duty industrial equipment (check rating to be sure). This is a heavy duty desktop voltage converter and it weighs over 12KG.

Simply plug the voltage converter into a UK socket and plug the US plug into the voltage converter.

Step Down and Step Up?
We sell this primarily as a Step Down voltage converter as it is fitted with a UK 3 pin plug. However, all Power Bright converters are very versatile and have the ability to also be used as step up converters (to allow the use of UK equipment in the US). If you wish to do this, all you need to do is change the jumper switch at the back of the converter and fit an adapter to the power plug (we supply an adapter free with each Power Bright voltage converter).
 
Please note, customers in the UK and Ireland will receive a power lead with a UK/Irish 3 pin plug, for our customers elsewhere in Europe we will supply a Euro Schuko plug.

Power Bright VC1500 Step Down and Step Up Voltage Conveter

Author: Philip Snow
I was surprised at how big this was, but I suppose 1500 watts is quite a lot. We used this for an American art installation rated at 575W - initially we tried a 500W version (looking back on it that was a bit silly) but it did not work for long and blew its fuse. On taking some advise we settled on this one and it runs out art installation with no trouble for 8 hours a day. Very good.
