Accucell 6 charger

Post by MichaelG92 »

Got a nasty surprise when I opened my Accucell charger; it turns out the power supply that came with it came without a plug!

What plug do I need to attach? And how easy is it?!?!

You need a plug like the one on the left of this pic.

Should be easy to get one and solder it on.

Ummm, that looks like a mains cord given that the wires are brown and blue.
If so, you need a 3-pin 13A plug.

It would be very useful if you posted a picture of the whole thing so we could figure out which end of the charger you were talking about. A power supply needs 2 plugs - mains power in and DC power out - you didn't make it clear which one is missing...

Sorry for the lack of updates, it’s been a busy week. It Turned out I’d bought a fixed installation power supply so I sent it back and bought a new one, due to the compressed time frame I have enough to do already. It was the mains power in plug that was missing.
