How to set up SP2 Dock in UK?

Hi there,

Just received my SP2 Docking Station from my uncle in the US through the post (very hard to get hold of otherwise!). Unfortunately, however, it is of course using a USA mains plug.

To any other UK Docking Stations users out there, how best would you go about setting up the dock? Do I need to buy a voltage converter or anything?

Please let me know :)

The Power Adapter accepts 100-240v input as indicated on the label. you could just change the mains cable or use an adapter.

Comment on Amazon:
"It's an intelligent charger. It can use both 110v and 230v. I live in Denmark and here we use 230v and it Works fine. It delivers 12v dc."​

So are you saying that I could use the UK-plug from my SP2 wall charger? Because I believe that provides 250v, so is that not 10v too much?

Thank you. I just docked my SP2 for the first time and now I feel fantastic, been waiting so long for this puppy to arrive.

Many thanks!
