Does anyone have pics of electrical plug adapters for U.S. -> Australia sockets and U.S. -> New Zealand sockets? Or just pics of Australia and NZ sockets will do.

Also do Oz and NZ operate on 110 or 220 v?

We operate on 220~240 volts. The sockets are either 2-pin or 3-pin and are flat. Don't have a picture, Ed, but I'm sure a google search should bring up some.

I can try and describe the plug as best as possible....

If it's 2-pin, the pins are always FLAT as I've mentioned above and ANGLED slightly towards each other.

If there is a third FLAT pin, it's situated above and forms a triangle with the other 2 angled ones.

Cheers - JJ

That's what I needed to know - whether the pins are straight or angled. Thanks, JJ.

Does Oz use the same configuration?

To the best of my knowledge....YES!! It's comig up to 7 am here, so it must be coming up to 5 am in places like Melbourne and Sydney....so those tossers must be still in slumberland!!

If you go into any reputed hardware store in your area, I'm sure they'll be able to help you out. Just bear in mind two things - FLAT and ANGLED.

If you can post a picture for my verification, that would be great.

Thanks - JJ
