Hello,
I was wondering if someone could find me/recommend me a splitter for both mickey mouse shaped cord and a regular desktop cord. If you could not find that could you recommend a converter from mickey to regular. so I could just use a regular splitter?

know of no splitter as such ... no cable comes with three though ... that I could find.

Note you will need the terminator on one end that suits your domestic supply at the socket outlet, the other goes to the PSU (brick).

I hope Aj is still around to check his post since it was temp taken off-line whilst you guys went through that big box of cables looking for Micky Mouse.

I have a heap of lappy power cables / bricks but I never heard that term used before.

Interestingly, when PC's first came out and the sealed PSU's from IBM selected these in the C13/14 the only other appliances here in Australia that seemed to use them back in the early days were kettles in the kitchen ... so they were called "Kettle plugs" or "jug plugs" C15/16 by many but had a higher heat tolerance.

You can't plug a lower power lead into the higher socket (on the appliance).
TV's and many other appliances had hard wired leads ... not many had leads with a socket on the back of the appliance.
