The TC-5000 Step Up/Step Down Transformer allows you convert 5,000W-rated lights or other appliances that run on 110-120VAC service, to run on 220-240VAC current. Conversely, you can run 5,000W units made for 220-240VAC current on 110-120VAC mains power through the transformer. The unit has high-capacity shock-proof sockets for North American three-prong plugs and European plugs. An LED indicator shows when power is flowing and two spare fuses are included.

Q: 6. Hello, I would like to know what is the maximum amount of Amps that this unit can carry? I plan to connect it to an APC UPS that is designed for 110 Voltage Input but I am residing in the Philippines and the Voltage here is 220 Volts. I then plan to connect up to 5 external hard drives to the UPS. I know they draw very low current but I need to know to be safe before purchasing. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank You.

A: The Sevenstar TC-2000 Step Up/Step Down Transformer (2,000W) would be 9.09 Amps on 220v to the UPS on the Sevenstar TC-2000 Step Up/Step Down Transformer (2,000W).

Q: 7. I am buying for an air conditionner that is 208/230V and INPUT: 1,510/1,470 W. Would it work? or should i cancel the order and call an electrician?

A: We have run a 1500W air conditioner on a 5000W unit with no problems, I would be hesitant to use a 2000W unit, initial draw is higher then running current. I basically double the power need for a piece of equipment when buying transformers. My 2000W will only have 800w to 1000W plugged into it.

Q: 8. What are the specs? How heavy? What are the measurements LxWxH?
