Plug Adaptors

Does anyone know the best place to pick up an adaptor for a Australian plug to HK wall socket? Can't seem to find one around? Cheers.

Er, any of the little stalls or shops selling electrical goods (plugs, lightbulbs, adaptors, etc.) around where you live - there are at least 10 within 300 yards of where I live on Robinson Road. If you really can't find any then you'll have to tell us which area so someone can guide you.

Hi mate,

I think the problem is that you are looking in the wrong type of places - look in small stalls or "local" hardware shops.

Around Central there are a number of such hardware shops on Lyndhurst Terrace.

Try the Japan Home Centre. Dont know the name of the street but its parallel to Queens Road. Head up the street towards LKF and take the first or second right, its about 50 metres up. They definitely had Aussie adaptors last time I was there.
