NAKUPO..... 120V na pala ngayon

[Macky]

Saan po ba nakakakuha ng AVR na may 120V????? Yung mga inuwi ko kasing gamit galing US pulos 120V na. Akala ko 110V basta US pero lahat na pala 120V (alarm clock, toothbrush, TV, stereo, HT, telepono, etc). Yung alarm clock gumana sandali tapos namatay na..... akala ko sira na pero nung nakakuha ako ng 120V na converter (from 220V-240V) gumana uli. Ang problema, 50W maximum lang ang kaya nung converter na dala ko. Yung TV is 120W na!!??!!

Tulong naman dyan! TIA!!!

I think the 110V Transformer can work on those appiances.... Just buy from Ace Hardware, Handyman, DIY shops....

Just a suggestion....Im no electrician pero kung halos lahat naman ng gamit mo 120V baka mas makabubuti siguro sir kung ipaconvert mo yung iba mong mga saksakan into the same voltage. Ganon kasi ginawa ng pinsan ko nang umuwi diyan sa Pinas. Yun nga lang dapat siguro imark mo yung mga sockets mo or gawing mong permanenteng nakasaksak yung mga plug mo para hindi ka makalimot.

Sinubukan ko na yung 110V. After a few minutes namamatay na. Akala ko sira pero nung isinaksak ko sa dala kong 120V na converter gumana ulit yung alarm clock. Ganun din yung TV, namatay din. Di ko naman maisaksak dun sa 120V converter na dala ko since 50W lang max nung converter tapos 120W yung TV.

You might want to make your own 110v line - our 220v line is actually a 110 + 110 set-up. If you ground one line and only one line is live, the output is 110v na.

Yung 120v na appliance will work on a 110v line kasi ang 220v line natin minsan na spike to 240v.

Sa ground line, we simply push a metal rod sa lupa (about a meter long) and attach the wire to it. If you check the voltage of this 110v configuration line mag show ito ng 110v. It is generally stable if you are in major cities. Sa barrio kasi mas malakas ang power fluctuation.

I suggest also to consult a qualified electrician if you'r converting your whole house into 110v.

sa raon ka po hanap kolin local brand but puros ganun gamit namin so far ok naman

Macky i-tester mo muna yung sinasabi mong 110V baka hindi siya umaabot ng 110V. Marami rin kaming gamit na 110V pero we are using wildthing's suggestion.

Tinester ko na sir, talagang 110V yung output. Baka kinakapos lang talaga tapos namamatay na. Lahat kasi ganun nangyari, mapa-TV, alarmclock, telepono. Few minutes lang gagana tapos mamamatay na. Pero yung telepono at alarm clock gumana ulit nung sa 120V converter ko isinaksak. Ayaw ko lang isugal yung TV at home theater.

Layo ng Raon pero since wala naman akong choice at ayoko namang bumili pa ng mga bagong gamit dito, baka daanan ko na din this weekend.

Thanks guys!!!

Kung meron kang suking electronics shop nearby na marunong magwind ng transformer, pede kang magpasadya ng 220v in and 120v out...icalculate lang naman nila ang winding ng secondary coil nito to produce 120v. Pede mo ring i-specify kung ilang watts ang gusto mo.

Oo nga..... sayang naman yung mga AVR na nakuha ko na. Haaaaaay, mahirap din palang maging tanga, hehehe.

Di ko naman kasi alam na 120V na pala ang mga appliances sa US ngayon e.

[bogart]

You don't have to go to Raon if you're looking for Step-down(220/240 - 110/120V) transformer.

Nearby electronics shops should have one of those in their stocks.

With regards to the 110v conversion on your house, be sure that the main source is a 110-110 and not 0-220.

[wildthing]

pede namang i-rewire din nila yung AVR na yun. AFAIK ung base ng AVR ay tranformer pa rin naman na 220v in and 220/110v ang out....the 110v out probably can be rewound to 120v instead of 110v.

Another option is rewind the internal transformer ng appliance mo. I-convert to accept 220v instead of 120v. Yung isang binili ko ng Japan surplus na TV, ganun lang ginawa ng technician...ni-rewind ang tranformer wire from input of 110v ginawa na niyang 220v. This time its the primary coil ang minodify niya not the secondary coil.

Bili ka ng transformer na 100v~240v.

[zechs]

sa akin when my uncle gave me a set of medical instrumets, 110v siya..buti na lang yung mga avr's natin dito may 110v na plug.

yung monitor ng mga pc natin, its best if you put it in a separate plug and not dun sa likod ng mga pc natin (power supply) para di nahihirapan yung power supply nyo. just a tip.

not true ... the monitor outlet on the back of pc power supply is directly connected (sometimes via L-C filter) to the ac input ... the p.s. electronics is solely dedicated to provide dc power for the pc ... samakatuwid, hindi nahihirapan ang power supply kahit nakakonekta ang monitor so likod nito

[kimpOy]

kaya naman my TV is US toshiba (110V)and running smoothly naman sa aking AVR 120V

same with me for the last 7 years(Sony nga lang brand) .

[the_wildthing]

Baka naman autovolt na yung TV... the other appliances, well, either sila ang ipa-convert mo or yung mga outlets, tama silang lahat.

[wilson66]

hindi dapat nagkaka problema yun, ordinary stepdown transformer will do.
if the tv is 120w use 250w transformer or higher. if you use 150w transformer ,the tv will work but the transformer may not last long coz it will heat up easily.
parang mga car system, dapat match din sila.
ps: dont but transformer yun may casing. usaully kulang sila sa wattage.

Update:

Nakakuha kami ng 1000W na may 110V/120V na output (PHP 2K plus PHP250 pa-wind nung isang 110V to 120V). Gumagana na yung TV at sound system ko Hindi na namamatay after a few minutes. Ganun din yung ionizer, telephone, toothbrush, at alarm clock ko!!!


OT: Yung PSP na uwi ko made in the Philippines pala
