      That probably wouldn’t be a problem as the voltage is the same, but as the frequency is higher your record player will likely spin too fast. Most things won’t care as they’re rated for both 50hz and 60hz

      Depends on the tool. Some things will work fine by just flipping a switch near the power plug while others will emit the magic blue smoke or melt down. If you don’t know if your devices are compatible the best bet is just to get a step down converter or use local electronics.
