Any recommendations on what 3rd party power brick would work?

I also use a tower extension and don't want to use a EU to UK plug adapter....

Before getting my europe to uk plug adapter I just used the power brick from my existing LG monitor which worked fine. The serial number for that was DA-48F19.

Search on Amazon and you can find a 3rd party one.

Thanks!

Does it matter if the connector is right angled or straight?

No, should be fine with either.

Ah crap, it's a plug with a built-in power brick! Eek. That complicates things

Thanks for the info.

Travel adaptor will solve it, just make sure you buy one made properly to safety guidelines.

Amazon we’re great. Fast delivery and no issues at all

When you have it set in overclock mode do you lose access to the contrast, gamma and colour settings?

EDIT

Sorted it, HDR was set in windows and that was the problem.

Ye hdr windows mode sends things a bit wierd tbh, I’ve been using gaming 2 setting for the brightness , got a spyder pro on way anyway just to check

Amazon EU sold out of these, now. C'mon LG, get them to the UK... please?

[Death] · 23 Jun 2021 at 18:11

I can see it being a while . They can’t even get other monitors in good quantities that have been out longer

Just order it from de you won't regret it.

Can you please take a photo of the sticker? Would like to see the input/output volts/amps, wattage.

The trouble with that is that the monitor specs list 65W as the max power usage, and the DA-48F19 is rated as max 48W. On low brightness you might be OK but if you turn the brightness up isn't there a chance of the power brick overheating or failing, since it isn't rated to output that much power?

This is the monitor I hope to get once in the UK, can a owner provide the depth of the stand?

About 1m so you'll be ok.

Deluxe1 · 26 Jun 2021 at 12:59

I see it's now listed on Amazon UK but at a hefty £547.

AnDo v1 · 26 Jun 2021 at 13:06

Thanks, ye it seems a bit over priced! Hopefully it will be cheaper on other sites when its more widely available

It's a marketplace seller, ignore those - they are always massively overpriced. Atm there are several marketplace sellers asking from £550 to over £750! Chancers, the lot of them.
