Hi Mate,

Did you say that you bought the Bosch cordless drill, with the free walkie talkies?

How did you get around the 2 pin euro plug?

I am sure I have a faulty one.

 

[Mark2spark]

Use a shaver adaptor

 

[welshwizard]

I tried that mate.

jam a screwdriver in the earth pin and wack it in :^O

but on a safer note... you can get euro to 3pin uk converters where the euro plug clips into a plug looking adapter thingy...

Thanks for your reply Frosty B. The two pin on the adapter is in a rather awkward position, which will prevent me from plugging the 2 pin in.

[welshwizard]

Any chance of a direct link or item number please, Mate?

 

[welshwizard]

I can't find anything on the Argos Website.

[welshwizard]

Only the 1 A shaver adaptor plug.

 

[SLIPSHOD & SLAPDASH]

Whats wrong with this then Easy solution

 

[SLIPSHOD & SLAPDASH]

Don't tell me cutting off the plug will invalidate the guarantee. If that's the case then the item should not be used in the UK in the first place.

 

[biker mike]

replace it with a normal plug and get a cert off a competant person to verify it was done within uk spec lol job done

I have sent them an email - The charger unit has a loose connection & the Charger point of one of the Items, is faulty.

I have asked for replacements.
