My wife's laptop power brick died a few weeks ago, and I'm looking at a new one.
Question is this, the original power brick ( AC transformer ) is rated at 3.42 amps...... the replacement power brick
I'm looking at is rated at 4.7 amps
The volts are the same by the way.
Am I looking for trouble buying this power brick which is slightly higher in amperage output ?
Hey David, as long as the output voltage is the same and the current out is the same or higher, you're fine. Dont think of it as the power supply is supplying 4.7A as it is that the supply can supply up to 4.7A. The laptop will draw what it needs.
Hi autx790, hey thank you very much with that info, great to know ! much appreciated.
I have another question about a battery box - it's a box that has a battery in it, and also a power inverter.... the AC transformer blew on it last week, and I need info on
another one I'm trying to use with it ( it's actually the one I'm asking about in my only other thread I just posted today also )
