Well done for getting that sorted! :)

As far as I know, there's only the one that you have in the uk.....:S 2
options spring to mind, either wall mounting it (probably shorten the
cable first for neatness!) - the pic on LetsAutomate looks really
small... Probably get away with a sticky pad or something or find
another wall wart appliance and plug it into an appliance module (ISTR
Phil used to do that with an air raid siren.... :S not quite wall-wart
size though! :D )
