    100v to 120v transformer - will my unit fry?
    I have a set of CD decks from America, power rated at 115v.
    I want to use them in Japan where the mains supply is 100v.
    I bought a step up transformer 100v to 120v.
    If I use the transformer, will my decks fry?

    JAPAN STEP UP / STEP DOWN TRANSFORMERS - 100 VOLT - 120 VOLT
    You should be OK, If transformer can handle the load.
