Really glad to hear that! Thanks for commenting!
I will get hubby to read this article as he is technically savvy. Last year I went to Cuba with a machine REQUIRED for my health and a new converter from CTC. It did not work and I almost had to come home. An employee with as asthmatic child lent me some equipment. I do NOT want this to happen again.
Thanks!

That adapter does not support grounding. Also the europlug it has is rated only for 2.5 A. That is what they make when the makers do not know or do not care about electric safety. Those adapters that you had a bagful are absolute death traps. Never use anything like that.
