Clean and simple - must buy for Japanese voltage components imported to the US
Affordable, reliable, and necessary when importing fine Japanese electronics (vintage or modern) for audio components. Thanks for making a step down voltage converter that's cheap, easy, and not hideous looking. Highly recommend.

Great 120V to 100V converter.
Worked great on my Yamaha CX-A5100 preamp processor from Japan. I measured the voltage and power associated with this device. Very accurate voltage and efficient. Runs cool and looks to be built well.
User
exactly what I needed
I bought this converter to help me safely run the Japanese Sega Saturn I bought last year. (I read online that a converter technically isn't needed as the PSU and the PCB are rated for both JP and US voltage, but I didn't want to take the chance. And I own other Japanese consoles I don't want to risk damaging.) It works flawlessly, silently, looks nice, and is a solid piece of hardware. It's exactly what I needed for my Japanese console. I'm happy with my purchase.

Works perfect and high quality build
Got it to use with my Japanese CD player. Works great.

Works great for Japanese consoles.
Perfect for my Japanese consoles! Needed this for my 2 Japanese PS2 consoles. Recommend getting this as you will eventually fry your console without it.

Great for quality Turntables!
I’ve been an audio fanatic/critic for decades. Bought this to run a vintage Yamaha YP-D51 (still a hidden gem on eBay from Japan and near-mint examples are still under $500USD) turntable. It’s wattage rating is way overkill for that application but for about $20.00 more than a 100W, this 500W, 120V-> 100V step-down transformer will never be pushed for audio applications such as this. No noticeable noise, hum or heat, fast shipping.

Looks good
They didn't ship it right away.It took way longer than the other brand I bought at the same time.This product looks good enough to put it out in the living room. (Wife won't kill you LOL)This one is 500W unit and very quiet and does not put out much heat. (Door phone using only 15W at most)

This is for Japanese units! Step down for 120v to 100v
This is for Japanese units! Step down for 120v to 100v. This unit is solid build very well made. Works as expected! Very happy highly recommended. Yes I would purchase again!! I’m using for a Japanese turntable!

Working well so far
I bought this a few weeks ago to power a Japanese HD VCR which only accepts 100V. I checked the output with a multimeter and it shows 99.7V, and the VCR is working happily so far. I can't see what's inside but it's quite heavy, the exterior design is nice, and I don't have any problem with the cable staying in the power outlets as the outlet is very tight and takes a bit of force to get the cable into. If it continues working I'll be very happy with it.

Well built and heavy.

No noise and very well built
I bought this to power a Japanese minidisc player. It is very well built and a linear power supply. There is no noise on the analog side and its hefty weights a fair bit. The unit and packaging is very well done it almost reminds me of a product from Eversolo or something. I would recommend this as a great option for any japanese audio products in North America.
