    Description

    Russian Samovar is an excellent conversation starter and sure way to impress your tea party guests. Unfortunately, all vintage Russian electric Samovars need 220-240 volt AC to make tea fast. It will work with 120 volt AC, with cheap adapter plug but it will take about an hour to boil three quarts of water.
    Transformers that convert US standard 120 volt into 220 volt and can handle 1000 watts of power are not only heavy and bulky but also quite expensive. Samovar-23 Power Booster is an affordable solution for Russian power problem. While it does not provide full 220 volt AC power, it converts US standard 120 volt AC into 160-170 volt DC that provide about two times more power to water-heating element. As a result, time required to reach boiling temperature is reduced from one hour to a reasonable 30 minutes. Samovar-2X also can be used with other 220-240 volt appliances: irons, lamps, tea and coffeemakers*.
