I have a 2000 watt transformer going in the other direction (220 to 110 volts) that I'm not comfortable with - I turn it off whenever it's not in use. 1000 watts is a more reasonable single circuit load. You might check in China for 110 to 220 transformers - mine was under $15, and has worked fine for 4 years now. Link to comment
johnxiaoying Posted May 13, 2014 Report Share Posted May 13, 2014 Here's a good source for most of your electronic needs for China. I purchased a Swiss? made coffee pot, washable filter, metal pot that won't shatter, 220-230 volt. Cheaper and much better quality than the items I've seen in the Guilin stores. http://www.220-electronics.com/?gclid=CMiOj7n2qb4CFVGVfgodrToAMg Link to comment

Greg.D. Posted January 4, 2016 Report Share Posted January 4, 2016 We received the soy milk maker as a Christmas present from my sister. I rolled my eyes, thinking "there she goes again, trying to spread her weird, non-tastey food gospel". Of course, it was a huge hit with my new wife who pointed out she drinks it 2-3 times a week, at least. So, maybe ask Mrs Wawster if she wants one. It might be the difference between being happy (staying) and feeling too homesick (???)! She thinks it's so cool she will be buying one (through JD.com) and have it shipped to her grandmother during Spring Festival. Her grandmother, though healthy otherwise, can't walk well enough to do her daily shopping and grab some fresh, warm bean milk. Link to comment
wawster Posted January 5, 2016 Report Share Posted January 5, 2016 Urrgh,,,,,,aw dang Greg, ya hit me square in the soft spot.(sigh)Sold.Anything to keep my honey happy.Even drinking... *gulp*...soy milk.But even if I don't, it might make Yifang happy to have it to make her own...and maybe not so homesick....ya got a good point there.Thanks for the reminder that it might mean the difference between homesickness and smiles.

Greg.D. Posted January 6, 2016 Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 I was informed that bean milk is "good for females" I know that I avoid soy (like in protein powder or tofu) cause I think it might be bad for males. The bean milk maker is not that cheap here but you can also do almond milk with it if you want. Anyway, you don't have to drink it! You are kind of required to make a liter of it each time, but you can put it in the fridge and re-heat it as needed (for the bean milk fans). Link to comment
