Advent laptop charger - advice needed please.

Hello

I need to buy a new laptop charger for my daughters computer.

I am really confused as to what I should be buying. It is an Advent Verona (product id 450415).

When I look up this model, all the chargers seem to be 20V == 3.5A. However, the charger we have says 20V = 2A. Does this mean that it is not the correct output, and therefore incompatible? Sorry to be a numpty, but I don't want to order somnething that will not work, or worse, break the laptop.

Any advice will be gratefull recieved.

Many thanks

20v 3.5A sounds about right for the majority of advents, the one you have may well be struggling if it can only supply 2A.

The Verona is somewhere between a Laptop and a Netbook. Thats why the PSU is 2A anything more then this could blow the laptop/battery.
It SHOULD be under warranty if it is a Verona, if so phone TTG and say its not deliverying a voltage out of the system and you've been into PCWorld where they tried another PSU and the laptop works fine.

If they have them in stock they will ship out a FOC charger.

Otherwise Order http://partmaster.co.uk/cgi-bin/product.pl?PID=2270515&query=Advent%20Verona

Hello

thanks for the replies.


Sorry, what or who is TTG?

We bought the laptop in Dec 2009, so I don't think it is under warranty any more.
