Pros

It works flawlessly and is exactly as pictured. Does its job, exactly as advertised.

Step-down transformer for jp retro consoles.

Powerbrite 100v 100 watt step up/down converter. More than enough for a turntable. I'm primarily using it to run a small hair trimmer, so the 100w is all i need.



Cons

Transformer has a horrible design. Turned on the transformer and then turned on japanese electrical item. After a few seconds, no power from the transformer. Can not run my japanese rice cooker or bread maker.
