Re: Voltage Converters
The 'little black box' will say 100-240v on it if it is a universal transformer.
For laptops they almost always are universal.
For Playstations they may not be. Easiest thing with those is to buy a new PlayStation power supply in Canada. Amazon, eBay, Craigslist etc...
Newer TVs are universal voltage. We only had 1 out of 4 that was 240v-only.
The converters vary in size depending on the wattage required. The small ones that look like a plug-in battery charger will only be low power,100 watts or so and aren't usually intended for continuous use.
