Laptop power adapters rated between 60 and 85 W, for replacing a lost or faulty charger or keeping a spare at work or at home. Our range has over 1,900 models, including adapters from DELL, LENOVO, HP, ASUS, ACER, 2-POWER and COREPARTS.
Most are 65 W units, and there are some 75 W options too.
How to choose a laptop power adapter
Connector and compatibility. The adapter has to fit your laptop both physically and electrically. Check the label on the old charger or the model code on the underside of the laptop, then compare the connector size and shape. Manufacturers use different round plugs, and many newer laptops charge over USB-C.
Output voltage. The voltage must match the one printed on the original charger. In our range 19 V is the most common, and there are also 20 V, 19.5 V, 18 V, 18.5 V and 15 V adapters. Even a small mismatch can cause charging errors or damage the laptop.
Power in watts. Choose the same wattage as the original or slightly higher. Most adapters in our range are 65 W, and 75 W models are available as well. An underpowered adapter may not keep up with a laptop under load and can run very hot.
Original or compatible. Original adapters follow the laptop maker's own specification. Compatible adapters are often bought as a spare, so check that the listing names your laptop model and mentions overload and overheating protection.

Frequently asked questions
How do I find out what wattage my laptop adapter needs?
The wattage is printed on the original charger's label next to the word Output, or it can be worked out by multiplying voltage by current. If you no longer have the charger, look up your laptop model in the maker's specifications. The most common figure is 65 W.
Can I use a higher-wattage adapter than the original?
Yes, as long as the voltage and connector match. The laptop only draws the power it needs, so a 75 W adapter works in place of a 65 W one. The voltage (for example 19 V) must be the same as on the original.
Will a 65 W adapter work with a laptop that needs 75 W?
It is not recommended. The laptop may charge very slowly or not at all under heavy load, and the adapter can overheat. Choose one with the same or a higher wattage.
Can I use an adapter from a different brand?
Yes, if the voltage, connector size and pin layout match and the wattage is not lower than the original. Check that the listing names your laptop model. With the wrong connector the adapter will not work, and it may damage the laptop.
