Aurora R2, PSU, US to UK

Hello community!

I purchased my Aurora R2 back in 2013 whilst I was living in the US, however I've now returned to the UK and unsure whether I need to swap the power AC unit from the US to UK type of hardware? I understand there is a difference in voltage and watts from power outlets. Can I get away with just using a 3 pronged UK plug? Or I should go all the way and buy a new AC unit? If so, is there a specific type I should purchase?

    Read the back of your PSU, it will show you it can accept basically universal input (will show a large range).  The actual power supply unit is the same.  The difference is the c13 cable that you plug into the back of it.  You can replace the cable, or you can put an adapter at the end of the cable.  No need to replace the whole power supply unit.
