![]() ![]() In the end, I had to buy an adapter off of A-zon (search for B08TZYV6元) to provide ground from the house to the device in operation.Ģ. The adapter included with the transformer is no help as it is designed to allow you to plug the transformer into a German type F plug, not plug something into the transformer. ![]() ![]() The outlet on the front for 220V is designed to accept nearly every plug type in the world, but at the cost of not having a ground for German plug type F where the grounds are on the sides of the circular plug head. The total value of all the appliances I'm running exceeds $1,700, so the $92 I spent was well worth it.ġ. I did connect a 3-outlet German power strip to the transformer, but I only ever run one device at a time to not exceed the 2000W available. The coffee maker runs perfectly on this transformer, as do all of the other items listed except the kettle which I won't even attempt. Unfortunately, the kettle for boiling water is listed to draw a max of 2460W so there was no way to power it on any circuit in the house as it would exceed the 10A breakers. Other things included a Bosch stand mixer ($200) at 900W, handheld immersion blender ($100) at 270W, and handheld mixer ($40) at 280W. The main EU (German) appliance I was looking to run was a DeLonghi Dinamica bean-to-cup coffee maker ($1400) with automatic milk frothing rated to draw 1450W. Next make sure the transformer can handle your appliance. It was a 10A circuit, so this transformer at 220V and 2000W is the biggest I can run without tripping the breaker because 220V at 2000W is 9.09A. I checked the amperage to the outlet where I wanted to plug this in - it was on the breaker in the box and was labeled. First make sure your house wiring can handle it. I'll drop some hard numbers here that I couldn't find in other reviews. ![]()
