814522 2009-09-27 21:38:00 Where can I buy just the connector piece for my power adaptor. The wire has broken off the existing sealed connector and I just want to wire another connector on. I know I could buy a universal adaptor and I will, as a last resort..... I have tried 'googling', jaycars, surplustronics etc but no luck. Anyone know where I can buy one? CROSBY (15276)
814523 2009-09-27 21:42:00 Welcome to PressF1. Short of finding a faulty one off TradeMe or similar and joinig the cable, a universal PSU (or a replacement) is the only real option. You can get good 3rd party ones off TradeMe for around $40 - $50.

What's the brand/model of notebook?

814524 2009-09-27 23:38:00 If Jaycar and the likes don't have it, I don't see you have much luck of getting just the part you're after to repair, and would say wratterus' suggestion is your next best option. inphinity (7274)
814525 2009-09-28 07:27:00 Jaycar will have the connector, their website is crap but their stocks are great. Just take it in and do a match, it will be a standard size. Pick up the printed catalogue while you are there, you are supposed to buy them, but if you ask nicely they'll probably give you one (can I have one of these please?). I haven't paid for one in years.

They have great helicopters too, one day I'm going to rediscover my inner child and buy one.
