Acer Aspire One - Charger plug

k++ · 11 Dec 2010 at 18:22

I bought an Aspire One in Cambodia a few months ago, now I´m returning to the UK I would like to swap out the stock two-pin plug for the UK 3-pin.

Does anyone know where I can pick up just the UK extension, Acer seem to do a bag of three different types. Would also prefer not to buy a 2-pin to 3-pin adaptor, it´s extra to carry around.

Hope that makes sense.

Seems the best choice as i don't know about the others. Try the bay for anything or even do some re-wiring yourself

. Surely the adapter isn't too much to carry, they aren't that big.

Which acer aspire one do you have? Afaik they all use a standard power cable, either a clover/mickey mouse or a figure of eight.

I have the Aspire One 532, with a standard power cable, but the plug bit has a removable pin-set, it's currently a two-pin Asia-style plug but was hoping to pick up the 3-pin UK clip-on.

I'll see if I can find any pics.
