Lightest-weight high-quality power supply for X61??
Does anyone what is the lightest-weight (or at least notably lightweight) power supply available for the X61 series? The machine seems to require 65 watts. Having seen some low-quality units out there, I'd prefer to get a Lenovo-branded one, but any really high-quality alternative would be good to know about.
Any suggestions would be welcome - and I imagine that other people will find this information useful too.

Lenovo's own 65W adapter is pretty light, and it is the lightest Lenovo-branded unit you'll find, I believe. At 345 grams (with the AC power cable), is it really too heavy?

It isn't too heavy at all - but every ounce helps. I'm glad to hear that I probably don't have to spend money to get anything lighter than what I've got. Thanks!

The lenovo wall/ auto / air travel adaptor. Its freaking small and thin.. love looking at the size of it. At the outlet prices, I wish I'd bought two

I've handled both the Ultraslim model (not the older "Slim" model) and the 65W model. The Ultraslim definitely felt smaller in my hands, and is more versatile (AC/DC-operations). But I'm not sure which is lighter, because my Ultraslim is currently at Lenovo's service center. The Ultraslim felt a bit heavier through. I'll weigh them on my balance once I got the Ultraslim back.
Cheers.

According to Lenovo's specs the Ultraslim is heavier.
