Of course, if you use a 100-volt device in a 120-volt environment, the over-voltage can cause serious harm to your appliance. ![]() This is particularly the case with older products that require heat to do their jobs-products such as hair dryers, microwaves, and electric heaters, to name a few. Electronics, especially digital, behave quirky and do weird things. Despite that small difference, the voltage gap is quite significant. Keep in mind, Japan uses the same-shaped plugs that we use in the US and Canada, and their voltage standard is a difference of only 10 to 25 volts. If you’re planning on taking American/Canadian appliances (rated for 110-120 volts’ power) to Japan, or bringing Japanese appliances (designed for 100 volt power) to the USA and Canada, an ACUPWR voltage transformer is guaranteed to hep your appliance work flawlessly. You might be thinking, "What’s a few volts difference in the grand scheme of things?" You might want to think twice.
