    You can legally change a plug on a portable appliance yourself all legally OK.

    I would say if you went for a ride to your local sparky $10 cash should cover it, pity you are not around here.

    At 12 volts it will draw 6 amps so a 12v power pack is out of the question.

    I'm loathe to provide any detailed advice on doing it yourself, and would reccomend you get it done proffesionally if you are not confident.
    An Appliance repairer, or Electrician can do the job.
    I can't help with quotes, I fix elevators for a living.
    Cheers
    Capital Cruise and TT2000 2012. Looking forward to my two big rides!

    OK. As it happens it seems that the lunch room at werk has the same (or similar as a cock to a cunt) model , for keeping the milk cool in the coffee gadget.

    I had a squizz and , yep a mini two prong socket on the back (as well as a 12 V one). I've seen those little mini-prong cords before, you should be able to get one from dick smith or jaycar (or even try Trademe). Plugs straight into the mains.
