    Another delay. The converter I have just bought has an unusual looking input socket and the wave maker plug does not fit.
    It has a two pin socket, one plat the other more round. I hope there is a suitable plug available. More running around.

    I just discovered that the wave maker/power heads are rated at 120v and the converter 110v. Will this be a problem?
