Perhaps we can ask RIPE whether or not to include the supplies when a set of ambassador-probes is prepared
What plug fitting, though?
USB type A is probably the most portable micro-power supply format in existence and locally compatible adapters are easily available in almost all countries in the world. Requesting that the RIPE NCC provide PSUs is turning a minor quibble on the part of Atlas users into a major stocking and expense headache for the RIPE NCC. Also, most switches, routers and home CPEs have USB type A sockets in them, which are ideal for powering probes. Personally I've never connected up a probe on its own dedicated power supply. Nick
