Title: Power supplies on laptops Post by: attagirl on April 28, 2008, 10:12:11 am I have recently had to replace the power supply on my laptop. It was difficult to find what I needed as my laptop is 4 years old. I was not able to find anything locally because of the 8v on the supply not being compatible with the universals out there that are only 5v. Is there a place online that is quick about getting them shipped out when you find what you need.

For 8 volt u may try to run your PSU rail 12+ and 5v + together (7v) . Instead of ground use the 5 v line . Title: Re: Power supplies on laptops Post by: halogen19 on May 06, 2008, 12:19:17 am I think you're best off contacting your laptop manufacturer. No hassles at all! :)

No hassles at all! :) Definitely send it to the manufacturer! Unfortunately laptops don't favor us "do it ourselves / overclocking" types! I await the day when you can buy a laptop "case", and build the rest yourself! I'm sure it's possible already, but not practical :) Title: Re: Power supplies on laptops Post by: sox7000 on June 12, 2008, 03:22:20 pm Yes there are adaptors for your car cigarette lighter that transforms 12v DC to 110 AC. Or you could rent a generator for $30 a day at Home Depot. But that's some heavy lifting and a lot of noise. ??? ::) ??? ::) ??? ::) ??? ::) ??? ::)Title: Re: Power supplies on laptops Post by: Xtreview on June 12, 2008, 05:36:52 pm POST deleted this member do not even know what he was talking about ;D
