momentjs toDate() - timezone gets reset

Question

I am working with momentjs and converting dates to different time zones using convertedDate = moment().utcOffset(timezone).format(). This works well but it is a str

Answer 1

So I wasn't very far off. The format needs to exclude timezone for it to work. This code finally worked how I needed it to.

convertedDate = new Date(moment().utcOffset('-4').format('YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm'));
