saquib 1 Report post Posted January 10, 2010 Think most UK purchasers will not have bought a charger for $19.99 + 17.5% vat + 6% duty ? Anyone sourced one from the UK ? Will a HD2 spec one work with the Nexus ? Thanks. Or, how about a US-UK adapter? Look at item 220530860953 on ebay.co.uk. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thla 0 Report post Posted January 10, 2010 I believe that the USB specifications specify what power levels are allowed, so chances are pretty big that they're compatible. If the HD2 charger doesn't exceed an output of 980mA, then it should work just fine the Nexus One. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm sure if you buy in the US there's no 'US' charger add on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was stupid enough to order one, it was only after I placed the order that I really thought about canceling the plug, and by that point i was scared of amending the order and having to go through it all again (took 3hrs on the phone to barclays to get them to sort payment). Ill let you know when i get home what its rated at. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Took two hours for my green light to come on Do not buy the UK adapter, use the US one that comes supplied and go but an adapter from Maplin.. Its a 110/240v power and yes, any other micro USB charger will work :) See my pic Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
