manuleka 0 Report post Posted June 4, 2011 i've got a laptop adaptor which doesn't do it's Job (Broken)... i also have a similar one with a broken tip (that goes into laptop).. so i was thinking maybe i can grab the cord (with tip) of the broken one and fit it into the work (but with broken tip) one...anyone here know of any sites that might give me some guidelines on how to tackle this? i'm thinking of opening up the adaptor container (or box) so i won't have to make cuts on the cords Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yordan 10 Report post Posted June 4, 2011 A similar one, or exactly the same one?At least take care, look if the voltage is exactly the same (it's written on the box) and if the +/- cabling is the same (usually + inside the hole, but cleck this).And take care when opening the box, usually there are condensers inside, can be dangerous if you touch one end of the condenser you could have an electrical shock, and if your screwdriver touches both ends (touching the wires for instance) you could have overheating, melting, or ever worse.
