Title: Help please - what's this type of plug called?
Post by: Squash64 on November 02, 2012, 19:06:46
My hubby took my camera with him to Sicily but forgot to bring the battery charger
plug back. 
There are two flat prongs very close together on the back of the charger - but all the adaptor plugs
we have at home have round fittings.

Does anyone know what this type of plug is called?  Or where to buy one?

Bit puzzled here,  how did you get the photo of a camera charger if he left the charger in Sicily?

However,  I believe what you need is an adapter from our conventional three pin 240V to the socket to match your photo.  Any electrical goods shop will supply. 

(Try Comet - it may be free). :blob7:

Cheers,   Tony.

He only left the plug which the charger fits into. He remembered to bring back the
camera, which had a bit of charge left and the charger itself.
