I need a UK/EU power cord spare part, where to find?

[Enrico D.]

I have this US version, but I live where we us UK or EU plug

do you have links in ebay or amazon of original/genuine spare part of this power cord?

is it possible to find or no chance for now? because Microsoft sell only the full set of power supply, but I just need that cord but uk/eu version!

Do you really need it genuine? It's standard, any common 2-pole cable like that will fit. And the Microsoft cable it's horribly short!

 

[Enrico D.]

no it's ok not genuine too, I mean branded at least, if there are like Belkin or similar producers, no problem, I just don't want to use adaptors because are bigger in volume.

I don't know the technical name of such cable, so is it standard? is it called "2 pole"? if I can have the exact keywords so will be easy for me to find it, because I'm not English native.

It's an IEC-60320-C7 connector. See here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEC_60320

I'm not an english native, but according to that Wikipedia site the connector is usually called a figure-8 or shotgun connector.

Ok perfect! with this cable if I find it 2 meters (6.5 feet long) I can solve another issue to attach the micro usb Y cable to an usb monitor because I will have the adaptor near the Sp3 and Usb monitor. perfect so. I will look for it, thanks!
