Is it safe to connect a US 110v 50inch Led TV in Europe 230v with this 750watt Step Up/Down converter 110/120 Volt - 220/240 Watt or is a 500watt converter or even less enough?

its simple how much wattage does the tv need. look on the tv or power adaptor and look for the Amp input and Multiply it by 120 this gives you the max watts the device can draw. if that is not shown you can use the output voltage times the output amp and get the wattage that way(add a few watts for the adapter loss)

for example using the output voltages
19volt 5 amp output will draw around 100 watts of power
12 volts and 4 amps would be 48 watts

using the input values

120 volts and 1.2 amps would be 100 volts


so your 500 watts would provide 4 amps max of 120 volt power
and your 750 watt would provide 6.25 amps max of 120 volt power

@Zandoo, check your TV panel - there is a good chance it has universal power supply, and needs nothing else to work in Europe.

@Alabalcho
thank you for your reply, I asked the seller before and he said its 110v ONLY, no dual voltage.
the official site of that tv doesnt say anything about voltages and I cant find a manual online of that tv ,
im gonna contact the manufacturer then to be sure its only 110v or if it has a universal power supply.

[Its a NTSC tv only as well, so no multysync either, no PAL for Europe, but the no PAL support can be solved with a PAL HDMI / Composite to NTSC HDMI 50/60 Hz Multi-System Video Converter - Up to 1080p wich has an universal power supply.]
thank you guys again for the help

edit: finally found a manual:Always operate this equipment from a
120V AC, 60Hz power source,
just waiting for a reply from the manufacturer for the amps
