I want to use my gamecube, it's US voltage but im in asia using 220V, so I need a transformer, I know the transformer is 100 watts but I want to make sure I can use it on that extension cord before I plug it in and short circuit the power. I looked at the extension cord for any electric consumption indicators: On the label it says "110V/240V 13amp 2500w"

It is a 4plug extension cord, the other 3 plugs are used, they are being used for: A Stationary Phone, A TV, and a DVD player

Thanks for your help

Please note that '2500w' at the end of your description of the cord. That stands for 2500 watts. Your transformer uses 100 watts. That leaves 2400 watts for the rest of the stuff. The phone and DVD probably don't use too much. Check your TV. If it's less than 1500 watts you're probably OK.

Also, make sure that your fuse or circuit breaker for the plug is rated for 20 amps or higher.
