I have been given a new electric toothbrush. The problem is the the
socket I use is for electric razor while the new toothbrush has a
standard UK plug. Apart from cutting off the plug and joining it to a
razor plug has any one any suggestions please? the plus and toothbrush
charger is moulded.

If there is somewhere to put the charge close to your razor socket one
of these might work:

Do note that the item is an EU plug and not a UK shaver plug and may not
fit the shaver socket.


Half a century ago I'd have suggested going down to Woolworth's and
buying a 2 pin (five amp) plug. But we missed the boat on that one.

However, the equivalent 3 pin plugs are available on ebay
