Help! Can anyone tell me where to get an adaptor for 3 pin to 2 pin? We've tried the usual places - Intermarche, Mestre Maco, Worten, fnac etc.

WE had to bring our with us, easly availble in UK have not seen any on our trips to algarve

But if your appliance only has live and neutral ( not earth ) you can rewwire it to a euro ( portuguese ) plug.

tesco's in uk have them at the mo for a pound each I'm coming over on the 26th and i could bring some if you like! Or if anyone wants anything (within reason!!!!) i;m happy to bring it over

Thank you both. Have managed to find one!! There's a supermarket in Sesmarias which sells all sorts of ironmongery etc., and hub found it there this afternoon. We can now charge our DVD player!

You can actually rewire any electrical appliance from the UK to the correct Portuguese plug and use it here (live, neutral and earth).

I have seen the UK to Portuguese adaptors in a shop on the road in to carvoeiro, near to the bank on the right as you past the road where the post office is.
