I have the problem of frequent power adapters dying before I put one. Please check with your UPS vendor for actual guidance.

This blog helped me a lot with Kinect I got from US. I got a replacement for power adapter too. But I got an adapter with 16 AMP plug and I don't have a 16 AMP power point near my TV at all. When I contacted MS, they said that is the standard adapter they give everybody for replacement. As 5 AMP power points are the norm. in most of the households, I am not sure why are they providing 16 AMP one. I see lot of people here got a replacement here, can anybody suggest what should be done now? Thanks Venkat!
