Comments about Travel Smart by Conair PS-200E Auto Adjust Voltage Converter Set:
Since this converter is designed for hair products, I ran to get it before a trip to England. I read all the details, and it seemed to be okay for my hair iron. It comes zipped up in a neat pouch with various adapters, which is a nice feature.
However, I plugged in my hair iron in the UK, and the screen flashed for three seconds before going blank. I had read the instructions repeatedly, and it said not to use with "electronic circuitry" products, and perhaps this is what they meant - an iron with a digital display?
I tried the converter with my blow dryer, and that went on. But my iron is officially dead. A return to the States did not resuscitate it; I've had to buy another one.
Needless to say, I returned the converter. It should have clearer instructions about which products are not compatible with it, so I didn't have to be stranded in a foreign country without backup for my hair.

Product description on website was not equivelant to the actual product brochure. This converter, while advertised for 2000W, is only recommended for 50W. The converter brochure also states that this item should not be used with PC's and other electronic devices. [...]

Comments about Travel Smart by Conair PS-200E Auto Adjust Voltage Converter Set:
This thing says it doesn't work with electric circuit devices lice computer or anything that has some electric brain in it. This product is ONLY good for hair driers and irons.
DON'T BUY IT UNLESS YUO WANT TO DAMAGE YOUR EQUIPMENT.
Your equipment may survive if it requires really low power but otherwise you are risking.
I don't undertand why B&H is selling it without any notice.
