    Homeplugs abroad

    Hi guys...

    Just wondered if anyone has tried using homeplugs whilst abroad...

    I have some here at home that work fine, and am going over to France to the in-laws soon, so was thinking about taking some homeplugs to be able to play xbox live whilst over there (as I have no wireless for the xbox).

    However, I wasn't sure how well it would work when plugged in to adapters. Would it likely cause any problems to either the adapters or their electric supply some way?!

    So, if anyone has tried or knows of any experiences, please post

    Yeah, that's what I thought. Got a few of them, but just wanted to check if everything should be ok. If it blows up their electrics (or my homeplugs), I'll blame you

    Where abouts in France are you anyway? We're going up to Reims, so lots of Champagne hehe

    I'm right in the middle (very near the F1 track Mangy-cours ) about 400 KM's down from where you are going. Champagne is gross beer is much better
    Home plugs are popular here, they flog em in loads of shops.
