Re: Heavy Duty Appliance Switch

1) Would it be safe to use european adapators?
2) Is anyone aware of a similar UK version of the product?

Thanks again!

Re: Tellstick not found

I am having the same issue on Ubuntu 10.10 since updating telldus-core to 2.1.0. I added telldus as a repo so just did a apt-get update/upgrade and got stuck with the "Error communicating" message as in previous posts. Whats the best way to downgrade? On a side note my tellstick does actua...
