Only a few left at this special price!

All the goods as The Original BrownBox, but made for 120VAC at 50/60 Hz when powering American amps in 120V countries or with a stepdown transformer overseas

Input: 120VAC, 50-60 Hz; Standard IEC AC cable
Output: Two AC Grounded Outlets, Adjustable Voltage Reduction
Power Handling: 5 Amps at 120VAC, 50-60 Hz, up to 540 Watts

WHY WOULD YOU NEED A BROWNBOX II? 
If you’re overseas - say, in a 220V country - but you’re using an amp that has a 120V power section, you’ll need a BrownBox II. Maybe you’re on tour and brought your own amp - maybe you live in a 220V country but you own an American powered amp. You can’t just plug it into the wall - you need a step down transformer to get from 220V to 120V - and then you can use the BrownBox II.

WHY NOT JUST USE A BROWNBOX? 
Not all step down transformers are frequency compensating - that means that what you’re probably getting is 120V / 50Hz. That will fry an Original BrownBox - which is only meant for 120V / 60Hz - like an egg. To safely use our products with a step-down transformer, you’ll need a BrownBox II.

CAN I USE A BROWNBOX II IN NORTH AMERICA?
Absolutely. The BrownBox II accepts 50 Hz and above, so it is safe to operate it at both 120V/50Hz and 120V/60Hz. If you’re not taking the BrownBox out of North America, you really don’t need a BrownBox II - but YES, it will safely work.
