you have these converters?
I currently have one. I'll be picking up another one at the electric supply store on King George right off Yaffo, I think the address is 5 King George.

no, not asking if somebody could bring me one  ;)
what are your insights, would it work there? is it worth the shlep etc?

Deff worth the shlep.

Bought a crazy heavy converter in the states as well. (1/3 of the price)

Used mine for several years. Lent it to someone while I moved back to states. Took it back when I moved back for a year. Gave in to bro-in-law when we moved back for good. Still chuggin along :)
Window units are illegal in Israel now (i think)
