Buy high-quality used DC power cables
A laptop is a compact, portable personal computer. Every owner knows that despite all the advantages of a laptop, there are still several disadvantages. The first is that it can be accidentally dropped and damaged, and the second is that the power supply and DC cable from the power supply to the laptop are consumables, and they may need to be replaced even several times during the entire period of use. This is due to the fact that the cable itself breaks, catches on sharp objects, or is simply damaged due to careless handling.
Characteristics of DC power cables
The power cable for a laptop usually consists of several parts: the power plug, the wire and plug to the power supply, the power supply itself, and the low-voltage DC IN cable that goes from the power supply to the laptop port. In the event of a breakdown, the user can replace each component part, which is much cheaper than buying the entire kit.
To find out which part is out of order, perform a simple test:
- Remove the battery and connect the cable to your PC;
- Inspect the laptop's power plug;
- Check the wire and plug for defects;
- Check the power supply with a tester.
If the laptop works without a battery, it's not the cable, it's the battery. If mechanical damage is visible, the cable needs to be replaced. If everything looks intact, check with a tester or contact a service center.
If the problem is in the cable section with the plug, you need to buy a new laptop power cable. But choose carefully, because most brands have unique connectors. For example, a cable for Lenovo will not fit an HP, even if the parameters are the same. Manufacturers can change the size and type of plugs even within the same series.
Also, pay attention to the maximum current that the cable can withstand. A wire that is too thin overheats and can cause a fire.
The best solution is to find an original cable with the appropriate plug from the exact model that was used. It's also helpful to have a DC-USB adapter to charge your laptop from a power bank and test the cable or battery.
