Where to Buy UK Adapter In Finland

Post by nora90 » Fri Feb 15, 2013 2:00 pm

Hi,
I purchased a couple of electronics on UK's amazon site. They arrived with only a Uk adapter. They do not fit in the EU finland adapter. Can anyone suggest what I can do in order to use my electronics. Where can I buy a UK-Finland adapter?

Thank you

Gigantti, or just cut the UK plug off and replace it with a Finnish one.

or clas ohlson.

if it's a DC adapter (eg 5v or 12v) then buy a european one instead (make sure it's the same voltage and same sized DC plug). Otherwise it's quite ugly to have a UK DC adapter plugged into the power socket adapter. Take the existing UK one into clas ohlson and they should be able to find the similar EU plug version.

For this reason I sometimes buy from amazon.de so that the power adapter is euro sized. but some from the UK anyway come with a detachable plug part and two for UK and Euro, but you cannot find this out easily from amazon. you take pot luck as to what the device comes with.

Hi, thanks everyone for the reply. I looked in the Amazon Eu sites and they are non-english. So ill be heading to giganti and class ohlson on monday and see what I can find there. If I cant find anything, then I will order one from UK amazon and hope for the best.
