old to new style shaver adapter
 

Hi,

I have an old style shaver adapter in the bathroom (these take slightly
thinner plugs than the new ones) and a requirement to plug in a device
with a new style plug.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Andy

The "continental adaptors" used to plug UK plugs into euro sockets should
work. They usually take 2-pin shaver plugs which are too big to go directly
into the european mains sockets.

Can you not enlarge the holes slightly and open the brass claws inside
the thing, just a bit.

Replace the socket?

This worked perfectly - they even have rounded bits in the uk bit of
the adapter for this purpose.

Thanks.
