It works fine. However it is definitely not 2500 watts. At 220V it's about 1000 watts. At 120V it's about 300 watts. It draws about 4.5A at 220V, about 2.5A at 120V. For those that are interested, the resistance of the nichrome wire is about 49 ohms. 220V/49Ω=4.5A 4.5A*220V=988W 120V/49Ω=2.4A 2.4A*120V=294W Note that it has an Australian plug so for use outside Australia you'll need a plug adapter or you'll need to cut off the AU plug and attach a different plug. It works fine at U.S. voltage (120V). Inside of immersion heaters is a nichrome wire that heats up when you put any voltage on it. It just takes a lot longer to heat water at the lower voltage and current. However don't use a 120V immersion heater on 220V. Remember never to plug this in unless it's immersed in water--the nichrome wire will burn up in just a few seconds if the unit is operated out of water. Also, you'd be hard pressed to heat up a bath tub full of water with this device, it's for heating a couple of liters of water at the most.Read full review

The product is as good as it is, if remembered that it cannot be approved in the EU because it lacks protective earthing and is dangerous to use. Another thing was the power, which was 1600W instead of the promised 2500W. At least the one that I was ordering. The immersion heater is otherwise convenient to heat the water in the pan. I use it to making beer.
