Re: EDP Powering problem.

hi james. i had the same problem with the edp when i first got it from the US. i live in malaysia and we run the same voltage as the UK (230-240) But i'm thankful because the guys here at LD helped a total noob like me to make it run. i did not put my edp in use for quite sometime until i'm sure that i'm using the right cables..even learning how to flick the voltage switch at the back :P . i used a cable marked with the voltage 2.5A 250V~ (a regular computer power cable which i snatched from my pc) and voila! the edp was alive. I'm sorry i can't help you with the blown fuse but i'm sure it's fixable.

i googled my old posts and it did bring some memories of how nice people in this list can be. sorry to butt in.

Best,

Well, the only you can do to the plug is take the fuse out theres no way to get into the plug without mangling it up. Its a 5a fuse.

I just purchased the EDP and as I got from america and I live in england I thought it would be easiest to buy a replacement power cord. The replacement looked pretty much identical so I decided to it in, switched the voltage on the EDP to 230 and then switched it on, all my outlets blew. 

so I was wondering if anyone can help me with this? I'm thinking it must be the lead because the guy I bought it from said it was working fine before he sent it. Is it possible to just plug adapter and use the american lead?

Cheers

James
