Default Re: Can I use a shaver plug and socket ???

I bought a multi-band radio intended for sale in the UK. The flex had a tag on it showing the proper way to connect a BS1363 plug. The seller connected it to a 120 volt source and said it worked well on reduced voltage.
I looked through my parts radios and found a cheapie clock radio that had a transformer that was close enough. It fit well and it works well.
It's the only practical way.
