Will these lights work with this adapter

I live in the UK. I have holiday lights from the US that I’d like to plug in without burning down my tree. I am clueless about currents. Will the adaptor specs (in this link) https://imgur.com/gallery/rrQJX4c work with the lights (specs in same link)?

Best answer: Yes that adapter will work. The numbers to care about are voltage and wattage. Voltage should match exactly. The wattage of the source of the power needs to be more than the wattage needs of whatever you're plugging in. So your lights need 120v and I think 72 watts. Your transformer is rated for 230 watts and outputs 120v so it is fine.
