UK laptop cloverleaf mains lead - does this look right?
« on: July 18, 2008, 12:24:03 AM »
Howdy,

I've got a Dell Inspiron 2200 with a 3 pin cloverleaf plug to the adapter.

For a few reasons, I'd like to buy this bit before I'm on UK soil.

Are far as you can tell, is this what I'm looking for?

Know anywhere else I can find one?

thanks Holly

Maplins carry them. I have an extra one laying around I could send you. When I ordered one for a previous laptop, I was sent two.
Another shameless promotion for www.mclevey.com, the best place on the internet to buy art.

That's the one:  BS1363 plug for U.K. outlets and an IEC C5 connector for the laptop supply.

Maplins carry them.

Many other electronics suppliers will carry them, and often cheaper than Maplin, e.g.:
