Continental inverter 21mm pins (14 Viewers)

[Twoleftfeet]

Yesterday I was given an inverter, it was purchased in Austria several years ago, it looks like it was expensive, So today it was playtime, but the holes where you take the power off are 21mm I’ve searched for 21mm 2pin plugs all I can find are 19mm for razors tooth brushes etc.
Any ideas before I throw the toys out of the pram

The only things i can suggest is google the model number first see what it brings up .There is a company called Applejacks you could ask them purhaps they do lots of electronic repairs to most things

Screw a UK socket on it and solder the wires onto the pins inside
Be careful with the screws mind

I've got an Aussie inverter with a similar problem.

I know everything 'down under' is upside down but I could always glue/stick an adapter but haven't gone there yet.

I’m pretty sure it’s an older style European socket.
They are certainly available in Lanzarote!

I’m out there December and will gladly bring some back if you can’t sort it beforehand

Thanks for the offer I’ll let you know if I’m unsuccessful, this inverter was purchased in Austria

What about a euro travel adaptor

There are more versions of the 2 pin sockets and plug. Type C, D etc..... I don't know specifics but perhaps it's a type D as used previously in India for example. Maybe different pin spacing?
