Fonctionne parfaitement et silencieux !

J'ai acheté le modèle 500W pour faire fonctionner mes anciennes consoles venant de France et fonctionnant en 220/230 volts. Je l'utilise surtout avec une PS3 Fat qui est une des consoles consommant le plus et tout va bien, le transfo est vraiment silencieux et bien fini donc c'est parfait !
