Does T400 AC adaptor work with X41?

#1 Post by yeeking » Sat Mar 07, 2009 4:22 am

Hello there!

I am considering buying a second hand x41 as my beloved T400 is a little too large sometimes. I'd considered a netbook but the x41 can be had for less money, is better built and faster ... I have found a cheap one but it does not have an AC adaptor. Does the T400 adaptor work with the X41? Looks like a no as its 16v vs 20v:

Universal AC adapter (56 W):

* Input is 100/240 V ac, 1.2/0.7 A, 50/60 Hz
* Output is 16 V dc, 3.5 A

T400:
says 20v on the PSU.

cheers

Nope, doesn't work. Like you say, it's different voltage (which is a no-no), and the plug is physically different as well.
Current: X220 4291-4BG, T410 2537-R46, T60 1952-F76, T60 2007-QPG, T42 2373-F7G
Collectibles: T430s (IPS FHD + Classic Keyboard), X32 (IPS Screen)
Retired: X61 7673-V2V, A31p w/ Ultrabay Numpad
Past: Z61t 9440-A23, T60 2623-D3U, X32 2884-M5U
