Thanks for that Dieter - By the way I used the lenovo link for the photograph only to illustrate the design

I have bought the kit now.

The transformers used currently in the A-100 DIY kit 1 (shipped to German
dealers) have available a standard IEC mains inlet. They can be used with a
suitable mains cable with the corresponding mains connector on the other
side. The former transformers were equipped with a so-called Euro mains
connector.

Pay attention that the Lenovo supply of your link will not work ! It has a
DC output voltage. The A-100 DIY kit 1 requires 15V AC ! For details please
refer to the A-100 DIY kit 1 spec of our website.

Best wishes
Dieter Doepfer
