Q&A: laptop ac adapter?
Question by ihatey!asnitches: laptop ac adapter?
i have an acer computer, and i had the original computer cord that came with it and it just burn out. i need to get a new one and when i was looking in the stores they had 70 watt, 80 watt, 100 watts, and even 1000 watts. but i have an adapter that is for 65 watts. i dont want to buy online for different reasons and would perfer to not have to have it shipped.
but my question is…if i get a 70 watt even though i have a 65 watt, will it damage my computer?
one sales associate said that it wouldnt, and another said it might and i shouldnt take the risk. what do you think or know?

September 17th, 2012 at 3:21 pmUse the same as manufacture specification ,you can buy some online but every notebook model (if you look it up) have its own power supply ..I do not recommend it ,it may works may burn your battery may……
see a good resource for buying laptop adapters for the acer.
