In my experience, not a problem. At least my experiences in Africa
have learned that many places mix different plug standards anyway.
Also, the round pins of the power supply do fit in British square-pin
sockets; many friends are very fast with this and don't even need
a pen (which I still need) to defeat the "safety shield"
British sockets have, to plug in a round-pin adapter.

All I'd be asking is that for probes I'd ambassador, to have the option
of having the power supply that it came with, be included.

While USB power supplies are available on the street, quality varies
and the whole discussion started with poor-quality power supplies
causing trouble for probes..
