If the charger from the laptop is out of order, it means that the problem needs to be urgently solved without delay, since mini-computers will not be able to hold a charge for a long time and, accordingly, continue work without a new charger will not work. How to choose a suitable charger will be written in this article.

Between themselves, power supplies can vary in several types of characteristics. The most tangible is the connector. If the user purchases a charger with an output not suitable for the laptop, then he will not be able to connect the wire and, accordingly, charge his computer. List of wire options with the appropriate laptop manufacturers:
- 5.5x1.7. This output is used only by Acer products.
- 5.5x2.5. A very popular outlet among various manufacturers. It can be found at ASUS, Toshiba, Del, Lenovo, Fujitsu, and HEWLETT-PACKARD.
- 4.0x1.7. Only for HP.
- 4.8x1.7. A long but narrow entry used by LG and Compaq.
- 7.4x5.0. Connector, which in rare cases is an alternative for Dell and HEWLETT-PAKARD.
- 5.5x3.0. Original input for Samsung.
- 6.0x4.4. Exclusive only for Sony.
In order to find out which connector the mini-computer uses, just look at the instructions.
In addition to the plug, laptop chargers can also vary in the range of voltage and resistance, but these parameters are insignificant and approximately equal on different devices. If in the house where you plan to use a laptop, the voltage is not stable, then the presence of an adapter on the cable of the wire (a rectangular parallelepiped, sometimes a cylinder in the middle of the wire) will provide insurance against combustion.
How to choose a power supply for your laptop
First of all, you should try to choose a power supply unit of the same manufacturer that once released a laptop model that needs charging. If there are no such options available, then anyone using the same plug connector will do. The presence of an adapter is welcome. In general, the brand and the cost of the power supply are not of fundamental importance, only the type of connection is important.
