I already have 2 x C7024s and the adaptors I'm talking about are the $2.99 kind that will literally allow me to plug it in to the wall! I'm hoping this will be ok. My UK laptop works fine like this but I'd still rather be sure!
Using C7024 in the USA
Hi, I've posted this question on the digital PSU recommendations thread but I'm going to ask again here in case this gets better visibility ...
I've just relocated to the USA from the UK. Do I have to buy the C7033 PSUs for my SSD or can I get away with plugging my C7024s in to the wall with the cheap adaptors so that the pins fit?
I know nothing about electronics but from what I've read the difference is going to be the input voltage (120V in the USA as opposed to 230V in the UK). From what I could tell this might not matter too much but I would definitely appreciate someone who knows about this kind of thing confirming this or setting me straight!
Thanks,
Mark

Thanks! Not the answer I was hoping for but good to know.
Off to look up shipping costs to the UK. Anyone need a C7024 going cheap? ....

Thanks again. It's a huge help being able to quiz you guys on this kind of stuff, very much appreciated.
I ordered something similar to the link above but found something new for the same money. Just got to wait for my stuff to get shipped over now. I thought about selling my C7024s before we left but there was so much to do I never got around to it. Oh well.
