110 or 220? do i need a converter for a hairblower? Thanks

Are you in/from the US, dr4kidds? If so.... I haven't used a hairblower for about 20 years but it seems to me some had a little switch where you could change it from one voltage to the other for travel purposes. If you have this, then you'd switch it over and then simply use a plug adapter and no transformer/converter would be needed. This is how my electric shaver is but it's automatic and has no switch so I only use the adapter plug and it works fine.

You may be able to find information about the voltage and/or if it's switchable on the manufacturer's website if you have/know the model number. Give that a try.

Many 4 or 5-star hotels (including Paradors) have blow dryers available in their ensuite baths. I think that may be their subtle way to prevent guests from plugging a blow dryer in the outlet they provide for electric shavers.

A typical hair dryer draws around 10 amps at 110 volt.You need a hefty converter to use it in Spain,check the ampere rating before you buy one,most of them are only good for electric shavers and camcorders which draw only .2 amps.
