QUOTE(contestchris @ Mar 23 2025, 11:01 PM) I bought this device from Amazon USA, but the plug doesn't fit. I've not seen it before. Luckily its universal voltage (100~240v), so can use here.Please assist how to get it to work and if it safe to be used? Thanks! ![]() ![]() If its 100-120v cannot use here as our voltage is 220~240. Just get socket converter, it will do. Mr diy or electric harware can assist. Just bring along, they can help. |

I'm sorry but some of us have never seen such a foreign plug. I don't shop overseas for the most part. The little I have shopped overseas, it never involved a plug. The closest was getting EVGA PSU and GPU a decade ago, but even those came with the correct plugs |

If TS still don't get it, you buy US Amazon, so the plug is US pins.
Just bring this US plug to Mr DIY & ask the staff there to buy adapter for it. |

Guys I went to 3 Mr DIY, they DO NOT sell this. Can you tell me which Mr Diy sells it or where else to buy the plug in-person? On Shopee and Lazada some are under RM1 and others RM30++, I have no idea which to buy. If you can suggest some safe options, that will be good too.
Thank you! |

I never found it in Mr DIY. Went to 2 more this weekend, none whatsoever. So to all those saying Mr DIY sells it, shame on you for making shit up.
I eventually got it from a relative. |
