Kinda was hoodwinked on Ebay. Pic had black wire, taped and end hidden. No mention of no plug. I guess you get what you pay for. Liv'n'learn. Anyway, I can return it, but was wondering if I can simply wire it to a plug and use it. Tried Google but no mention of Fans with 2 red wires. Apreciate any advice, Cheers.

I bought something similar in the UK, it was made in Poland by a company called Dospel. It had no wires - needed hard-wiring into the cable from the switch which was quite fiddly with 1.5mm twin & earth.

It was rated 220/230V but IMO these things always have loads of contingency in the ratings so I don't think it will blow up at 240V. Has twice the air throughput of yours and is still very quiet.
