I bought a 220v wet grinder and tried it with a convertor. The grinder ran slow and then the convertor burnt out. I understand it is just not thevolt power but also something else which is different.

Hi Pooh,
I have both a 220 v mixie and a 220 v grinder from India. I use a maximum capacity converter (not sure what the capacity is). I have been using it for past 5 years and and use the same convertor for mixie as well as grinder and have had no problem. Try to get a convertor with max capcity (i think 50 to 500 watts).

Thanks
