## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this ship with a UK plug?**
A: It only comes with a two pin european plug.

For UK used you can use an adapter, I use a Brennenstuhl model 1508533.

Don't try a shaver adapter, the startup current will blow the fuse.

**Q: looks the same as the vantec enclosure?  does this also only include usa plug like the vantec?**
A: EU plug only unfortunately. But I was able to find a replacement power supply online that was very affordable.
