I have purchased a filter for my aquarium which is rated for 220-240v @ 60hz - is it possible to use this product when i return to the US? I know you can buy a converter/transformer, but some people are telling me that it is quite dangerous due to the grounding/etc…involved and quite risky to do for a product that will be in continual use and very seldom turned off? I don’t know too much about voltage and electricity, so a basic answer would be appreciated - i don’t wanna burn my house down, which is what some people are making me feel like i am gonna do! please help…..
