I have a question about power converters, for traveler's?

I'm going to Paris and Italy in a couple weeks and I have a "Jensen power and travel voltage converter kit. 1600 watts, converts 220-240 volts."
I bought it just so I can blow dry my hair and charge my iPod with a normal wall charger. On the front of the box it shows pictures of like hair dryers, curling irons, steamers and stuff of that sort. So I know I'll be able to use it for my hair dryer BUT can I use the same one with charging my iPod? or will it blow up my charger? Any advice will do. Thanks a bunch!

Here are links to either of the converters that I found, again I have the 1,600 one but do I need the 50 watt one?

Just get the second one, you will be fine, all it is , is a transformer, the second one is just bigger and can handle a hair drier, and will handle any other smaller 120 volt loads just fine, look at your ipod charger, some of them are rated for 110-250 volts so you may not need at converter at all, just a plug adapter.
I really don't bother with any adapters when I travel, most of my electronic stuff works just fine with the 240 volts, and where I usually go, the outlets are the same as in the U.S. just 240 volts and not 120 volts.
Enjoy your trip, Paris would not be my first pick for a trip, go to Asia, that is where we are every year...
