Are all A/C to USB power converters the same? i.e. Apple & Sena products use same voltage & Wattage output from the A/C component?

The output of the generator is listed as a constant voltage and a maximum current or wattage - that could also be thought of as capacity.

Typically, it would be rated for 120 or 120/240 volts for generators sold in North America and the wattage could be as low as 3,000 - 5,000 to substantially more than that. If you were to look at the watts or amps while a connected light bulb were turned on, you would see the voltage stay at 120V, but the amps would go from 0 to .833 Amps - and the wattage from 0 to 100 (assuming a 100 W bulb). Next, connect a toaster - again the voltage stays at 120, but the amps and wattage would jump from .833A and 100W to 8 or 9 amps and 1100 watts. As soon as the toast was done - the amps and wattage would drop back to .833A and 100W. The same could hold true for a well pump or air conditioner that is connected to the generator.. these devices turn on and off automatically as determined by a pressure switch or thermostat. Seeing a wattage or current that fluctuates is normal as the amount of power needed from the generator changes as the devices turn on and off by them selves.

Also, it is not unusual for motor operated devices to draw 2 or 3 times as much amps or wattage during the first few seconds when starting as opposed to what it uses when running.

Wattage is Voltage times Current (amps) so IF you know the wattage and voltage then you simply divide wattage by the voltage.

The original Wii console has Component, Composite or S-Video out. Your best bet is the Component out with a component video to HDMI converter. http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/770114-REG/KanexPro_RGBRLHD_Component_to_HDMI_Audio_Video.html is one of these converters. You'll also need the RCA component video (3 RCA plugs) and audio cables (2 plugs) and an HDMI cable. These aren't sold in the box with the converters. Before buying a converter, check the output signal resolution.

I hope this helps.

(composite video to HDMI converters also exist. However, the resolution of the composite video signal is lower than the resolution on the component video signal.)

There are products called Step Up transformers/Step Down (Voltage Converters) that can be used. We use these For our 220VAC Australian manufactured lasers when we need to run them in a Dr.'s office that only has US 110VAC.

Info from a website:
Electrical voltage in USA is 110 voltwhereas; the voltage in most of the foreign countries is 220V to 240 volt. A voltage converter / transformer, also known as power converter are usedto convert electricity coming out of the wall to match the voltage of yourdevice. These Voltage transformers or converters can be used safely withRefrigerators, Microwaves, Juicers, Blenders, Coffee makers, Power Tools,Stereo Systems, TV's, Video Games, DVDs, Hair dryers, Chargers, computersand other electronics when travelling abroad..

Remember to leave at least a 100-percent margin for power surges/spikewhen buying a transformer. Some items, such as Televisions, computermonitors spike when you turn them on. For these products you need to buy avoltage converter transformer that is at least 3 times the items capacity.Power tools, laser printers and heating appliances like coffee makers,toasters, microwaves, Halogen, Fluorescent bulbs you must leave a marginof 3-4 times.

Voltage transformers are made to convert single phase 110 or 220 volt.American 220 Volt consists of 2 phase of 110 Volt and European 220 Voltconsists of 1 phase of 220 volt.

Volts x Amps = Watts (i.e. 110V x 0.5 AMPS = 55W). Please make sure not torun any appliance with higher wattage then voltage transformer's wattage.This might damage both: your appliance and the transformer!

I hope this helps.

It is actually a step-up transformer you need- from 120v to 220 v.
There are many of these transformers or converters listed on the web. Do a search " 120 v 60 hz to 220 v 60hz converter. "
The critical feature is to have a converter that has a wattage rating equal to or greater than the appliance that is plugged into the converter. It is best to a converter with a higher wattage rating than the appliance beacuse most appliances have a surge of current at initial startup.

Hi Bart,
You will find there is a specification plate on the rear of the unit.
It should have a rating on it showing the wattage of the unit. This is usually the amount needed to operate all the functions of the boombox.
The wattage is your input voltage multiplied by the current draw in amps. So the amperage is the rated wattage of the unit divided by the input voltage.
Usually all power goes through the transformer, so I would use this input amperage as a guide, and assuming there is no power loss, use the same calculation for the output - you know it is 9 volts, so the wattage going to the unit is the same as the input wattage, so you can calculate the amperage from this.
Transformers usually work on AC input/output, so there will also be a rectifier to convert the AC to DC for your boombox.
I would add 10 - 20% above your calculation to make sure you have sufficient power. Also I suggest that you install a fuse between your transformer and the boombox for safety.

The 65W is for the 20" ACD (aluminum clad Apple Cinema Display)
The 90W (A1097)is for the 23" ACD
The 150W (A1098) is for the 30" ACD

This is a copy from the Radio Shack site. The quick answer is go to pretty much any electronic store or most travel stores and buy a Foreign Power Converter.

AC to AC Power Conversion (Foreign Voltage Converters) Purpose of Converter / Explanation of Operation AC-to-AC voltage converters, or travel converters, are designed to convert the voltage used in a foreign country to the voltage required for a particular AC device. These converters are either transformer-based or solid-state, and this affects what type of devices the converter can power. In addition to converting the power, you will often need to also use a plug adapter. Plug adapters are generally either built into the converter, or provided as separate parts. They are also sold separately, for use with multi-voltage devices that are designed to convert the power internally.
Selecting a Converter These are one of the more confusing of the power conversion devices. Because of the range of voltages, plug types and converter designs, many customers find that they need help determining exactly which converter they need. To aid in that process, we have put together a short worksheet to help you determine what type of converter is needed: We recommend that you print out thi sheet when taking a number of different devices to a different country.
First, you should determine the electrical requirements (voltage, frequency, and wattage) for the device(s) you will be taking with you. This information is generally on a label or embossed into the back or bottom of the device. Make a note of the voltage(s), frequency or frequencies, and the wattage indicated for each device.

• The voltage may be given as either V, VAC or VDC. The standard voltage for US devices is 120 V. Devices that are designed to operate using different input voltages will be labeled, such as 110/120 V, or 120/240 V.
• The frequency will be given in Hz. The standard frequency for US devices is 60 Hz. Devices that are designed to operate using different frequencies will be labeled, such as 50/60 Hz.
• The wattage will be given in either watts (W) or volt-amps (VA). If the wattage is not listed on the device, you will need to contact the device's manufacturer for this information. If you have the maximum current consumption (in amps), you can calculate the wattage by multiplying the voltage (V) times the current consumption (A).

Next, you will need to know the electrical requirements for the country you are going to be visiting.

• Look up the country you will be visiting on our Guide to Worldwide Electrical Voltages, Frequencies and Plug Types.
• Make a note of the voltage(s), the frequency (50, 60 or 50/60 Hz) and the plug type(s).

Next, you will need to compare your equipment requirements to the country's information to determine whether you need a Step-up or Step-down Voltage converter.

• If your equipment accepts the voltage and frequency provided by the country you will be visiting, then only a Plug Adapter will be required.
• If the voltage of the target country is higher than the voltage required by your device(s), you will need a Step-Up Voltage Converter.
• If the voltage of the target country is lower than the voltage required by your device(s), you will need a Step-Down Voltage Converter.

Once you know what type of converter or adapter you need, consult our list of travel power conversion products to find one that meets your requirements.
Cautions

• The AC outlet in many foreign bathrooms is for low-wattage devices only. To avoid damage to your converter and/or attached device, check with your host or hotel before powering a high-wattage device (such as a hair dryer) from this plug.
• Do not use a voltage converter with electronic devices such as televisions, VCR's and computers unless the device indicates that it can handle both 50 Hz and 60 Hz.
• Do not use heating appliances, such as hair dryers, irons and coffee-makers, on a transformer-based voltage converter.
• Do not use non-heating electronic devices, such as calculators, electric razors and portable audio players, on solid-state voltage converter.
• Do not use 110-120 VAC Surge protectors or Uninterruptible Power supplies on a 220-240 VAC system. Even with a step-down power converter, damage could occur as the two power systems are wired differently.
