US Travellers to Europe

The KVOHBED YC-201 is a step-down voltage converter that changes 220-250V European mains power to 110-125V for American devices. It fits Type C, E and F wall sockets found across Continental Europe and is not compatible with UK Type G outlets. The unit measures 3.15 in x 2.17 in x 3.19 in and weighs .2 lb.

Replaces Bulky Transformers

Electronic switching technology replaces heavy iron-core transformers for travellers who previously carried large converters. The jump is worth it when you need up to 1500W for single-voltage appliances such as hair dryers, used one device at a time. Two US AC outlets, two USB-C and two USB-A ports charge six items from one socket.

For US Plug Devices Only

Suits visitors from the USA taking 110-120V electronics to France, Germany, Italy, Spain and similar Type C, E, F countries. Smart IC fast charging negotiates speed with compatible phones and tablets, otherwise defaulting to 5V/2.4A. Buyers needing UK or Ireland plug compatibility, or dual-voltage gear that does not require conversion, should look at a simple plug adapter instead.

Questions about this item

Will the KVOHBED YC-201 fit a UK Type G socket?

No, the converter fits only Type C, E and F European sockets; it is not compatible with UK, Ireland or Scotland Type G outlets.

Do I need to press a button to switch between 220V and 110V output?

No, the unit uses electronic switching technology that automatically steps down 220–250 V input to 110–125 V output without any manual selector.

When should the internal surge protection be checked or the unit replaced?

Replace the converter if it shows discolouration, emits a burning smell, or trips its internal overload after a high-wattage appliance such as a 1500 W hair dryer is used.
