⚠️ Things to Watch Out For
- 📉 Not suitable for laptops requiring 90W+ or larger barrel inputs
- 🔌 Connector must match — not interchangeable with 5.5 mm or 1.7 mm barrels
- 🧯 Avoid third‑party clones with weak contact — may cause intermittent charging
- 🌀 Excess heat or frayed cables can cause power dropouts
- 🧪 Always confirm laptop’s required wattage and connector before swapping adapters
🛠️ Quick Tips for Beginners
- 🧭 Check underside of laptop or original charger for voltage and connector size
- 🔌 Use only with laptops rated for 65W and 3.0 mm × 1.0 mm input
- 🧪 If laptop won’t charge, inspect barrel contact and cable integrity
- 🧯 Label adapters clearly to avoid mix‑ups with standard barrel or USB‑C chargers
- 🧵 Keep one in your travel kit for legacy Chromebooks and Cloudbooks
