Q1: The specifications for the voltage converter transformer range from 600W to 9000W. How should I choose the right power?
The key principle for selection is to leave enough power margin. For resistive loads (no motors, no heating elements), like small speakers, desk lamps, shavers, etc., it’s recommended to choose a transformer that’s 1.5 to 2 times the actual power. For inductive/heating loads (with motors, compressors, or high-power heating elements), like rice cookers, hair dryers, coffee machines, blenders, refrigerators, air conditioners, etc., the startup current is very high, so it’s recommended to choose a transformer that’s 3 to 5 times the actual power.
Q2: Is it safe to keep the voltage converter transformer plugged in for a long time? Does it save a lot of power or consume a lot?
Safety guarantee: The product has multiple safety protections (overload protection, short circuit protection, etc.) and a toroidal core design, making it very stable. Power consumption: The transformer itself will have a small standby power draw when idle (plugged in but not connected to any device), usually a few watts to a dozen watts. If you're not using it for a long time, it's recommended to turn off the switch or unplug it safer and more eco-friendly.
