    Hi,

    Im looking to buy a different tip of the AO power adapter, one that will fit european outlets.
    I don't know how it is called and where to look for it, I attached a pic to show what I mean.
    Any ideas?

    thx!

    Wrong board but,

    I did something like this when I went to japan. I went to radioshack and asked for a JIS C power head and they found it right away.

    I don't know which model number the european plugs use, so you'll have to google for that.

    From that point on it's just a matter of connecting the copper wires together, apply an absurd amount of electrical tape over the open area just to be safe.
