Hi Fanus, You are correct, North America has 2 flat prongs and from how you describe it your 2-round prong configuration sounds just like what I am used to from growing up in Germany. However, I just did a Google search for "What power plugs are used in South Africa" and I found the following website:
http://www.worldstandards.eu/electricity.htm This website describes 14 different plug configurations (from type A through type N) which are used around the world. According to this, Type M is most widely used in South Africa and while it sounds similar to Type E and Type F which are the German standards, I believe it is different. But I am sure you can find an adapter or maybe the Standscan comes with some adapters. I once bought a Skype desktop telephone from a company called Ipevo and it came with about 6 different adapters. It is completely incomprehensible to me why there isn't more standardization. I guess it wouldn't be an easy thing to change something like that, but I'm sure it could be done over time. Of course we all know that the German Type F "SchuKo" plug is the best because, well... it's German *smile* Regards, Sieghard -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Fanus Sent: Saturday, March 09, 2013 4:10 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Prizmo with StandScan Pro Hello Anne and list I want to order the StandScan pro but I am also considering to buy the AC adapter. My problem is that they give three pin configurations, for US, UK and europe. If I remember correctly the US has two flat pins but I am not sure of the UK and Europe. Here in South Africa we use adapters with two round pins. Which of the UK or Europe adapters will work?
