Laptop charger woes
Aargh!! These things drive me crazy.
The original power lead for my laptop started to spit and fizzle then it died on me. So following advice I bought a new cable with a hundred different end thingies, one of which fitted my laptop. Now I've lost the one and only end thingy that fitted and it looks like I'll have to fork out £35 for a new full set of lead and 99 other end thingies that I don't need. No, I can't buy just the one end thingy that fits! Anyone need a job lot of end thingies that might fit their laptop? |

Re: Laptop charger woes
I soldered on a new end thingy when my laptop charger started to fail.
Get the ends from maplins for a quid. |

Re: Laptop charger woes
Looks like Maplins only sell complete sets - that's where I got the first one from.
Or did they see me coming? |

Re: Laptop charger woes

 But it had a nice yellow end. |
