    Just wondering if anyone could help me with an issue Ive managed to get myself into ! :P

    Bought the wireless charger mentioned above but had no idea it was going to come with a 2 pin EU Samsung 25w adapter plug.

    I tried using an Anker fast charge adapter and the charge adapter that comes with my s20 plus and neither work.

    Would a 2 to 3 pin adapter do the job here or am i going to need to go and find a 3 pin official Samsung 25w plug??

    Can you post a picture of the Anker charger you used?

    If its EU-2pin then all you should need its a plug top for it once the charger is rated 230v. Similar to this:

    Thanks for the reply!
    I tried every adapter and setup I had last night googled everything ha. Ended up going down to shops this morning bought a travel adapter for 4 euro and works. Obviously the Samsung adapter that comes with it is bit big but it will be only really plugged in at night so be ok. No one will be at it.

    Just check the rating on the travel adapter. The image of the one I posted would be a more secure option as its fixed into the plugtop. One example on Amazon

    You could cut the 2 pin off and wire a 3 pin plugtop but I wouldn't do that while the charger is still under warranty. Use the option above in the meantime.

    The plug that came with is an awkward size so thats only thing.

    It's this one pretty much apart from it being black.
