Have a product which runs on 220V 50Hz 120 Watt, can i use this converter in USA to run my product(samcho/ heating pad) ? would 300w converter harm ?

No it will not harm your pad, your converter should always be a higher wattage.

I am so sorry ,but I don't know nothing about yours specific product.For me the big problem is noisy.

Yes you can and it being a 300w converter means you can run 300w of electrical equipment on it. For instance, it has the capacity to run two 100W light bulbs and two 50W light bulbs (all together 300W) at the same time. The problem we encounter when going from one country to another is the voltage. This converter can either convert up to 220 or convert down to 110. So you would plug it in a US plug and plug your product in the 220 outlet in the front of the converter. Good luck

Manual says, "Be sure that the warming product power supply is used only on 120 V, 60 HZ current supply." That's all I could find. Hope it helps.

I live in Lima, Peru, so I understand your concern. Luckily, this pad works on any voltage up to 220!Also, as an aside, the unit runs for 20 minutes and then shuts off automatically. I didn't like that, so I took the control box off, which required some cutting of wires and re-soldering some connections, but now it stays on as long as it's plugged in.

No, it only runs on 120v AC, so you would need a voltage converter to use 220v.

I am confused. Where are you? USA or India? If you are in the US and want to use this upconverter to supply 220 volts to operate a 1000w food processor I think you will be fine. You might want to look at the surge wattage your processor draws upon startup just to be sure. But my guess is you will be safe because you are using a converter that is rated for twice your needs. That should be a safe cushion.

Your heating pad should have a wattage listed either in the information that came with the device or on a label directly on the heating pad. If the wattage is less than 175 Watts, you should be able to use it with the inverter. HOWEVER, I typed in "12 volt heating pad" at the Amazon site and got 106 hits. Going that route would be my first choice, rather than converting the 12 volt battery current to alternating current at higher voltage. The prices for the 12 volt heating pads looked very reasonable - about the same as the inverter. Hope that helps.

Yes, this unit converts 110v to 220v (step up the voltage) allowing to use foreign 220v device in USA up to 50 watt max.

This is a 120v, so you would need to have a converter or it wont work or youu will fry it.

No, this is 120V. Not sure if it would work properly with a converter or an adapter. Would ask the manufacturer.

You cannot use this converter for a 120 Watt massage chair since you have to keep a margin for power surge and spike. You will need a converter that is rated at 250 watts or more.

It should work if you buy the one with the US cord, you might need an adaptor because they only take uk plugs in. 300W should be ok. They get very hot when stepping up (from 127V to your 220V) so have it on an opened area and don't leave it completely unattended (just in case).

hello: I have a separate circuit at 120 volts and it's still working fine. I don't think you can use 220 on the unit. The 120 only supplies the power board only and then the transformer changes all the power circuit to 12 volts.

You need to assure your converter provides 110v 50-60Hz cycle. I am not electrical expert but that is a common requirement for most electrical device in US.

I live in the U.S. which is 120v. Seems like it would be no trouble/danger to use a wall converter to achieve the needed 120v. Truly a great steamer. Even does window tint removal with relative ease.

Yes. wattage has nothing to do with a standard 120v system. Its all about the amps.

This converter is actually made to reduce power from 220v outlets/output to 100-120v so you do not overload and "fry" your appliance. Your heater may work on 110-120v but not as effectively or efficiently as it would on 220v's.

Hello Ms. Martinez,I haven't used the converter yet but my understanding is it is a step-down transformer (from 220v down to 110v). As far as I know, as long as you are not using an appliance that has a motor in it and within the power rating (watts), then it is okay.I'm not sure it it answers your question.
