Can you cut off an usb plug from fairy lights and fit a normal 3 pin plug.
Asking for a friend, honestly.
The wires from the base of the usb plug came away and lights not working.
Only two wires to usb plug.
Just a thought.
Thanks in advance.

Edit to explain a little, usb is 5v and your mains sockets are 240v (edited)
So you need to work out if it is just a standard usb plug, or not, or if it contains a chip, power regulator, or resistor. (edited)
You have provided insufficient detail for us to provide a realistic answer.
I'll buy her a new set.....
....but keep the spare plug.
