Wanted - Lenovo Ultraslim Charger

[Cunha]

Looking to pick up one of these guys http://shop.lenovo.com/SEUILibrary/cont ... u_area=yes

Or maybe a cheap 65W adapter.

Thanks a lot. PM me a price. Condition and such makes a difference so is hard for me to just say "I will pay X dollars"

If you don't mind a generation older, Lenovo outlet has the slim version in the accessories section for around $60, free shipping.

From what I hear, that is basically larger than the 65W.

Lenovo outlet also had a ton of 65W chargers for like 9 dollars and I was going to buy one of those guys, but it seems someone decided to buy all of them (

And I just noticed that my 90W is starting to pull apart at the connection to the box..stupid piece doesn't flex at all so the cord gets all the stress. So now that I realized I actually -need- one not just as a backup, the 65W's are all swiped. I wish they would put order limits on the outlet stuff =/

I am willing to pay right about 65 bucks for an ultraslim. I only need the adapter that will work with an X6x but the whole array that is usually included would defnitely be a plus.

I swiped 2 of those 65W one for about $9 each when they had 2 left. Then they refilled about 9 more and were gone in a few days.

The slim ac/dc adapter is 90W. Thr ultraslim is a new model released in Sept 2009 and I doubt you will find it at $65. If they have the ultra slim at $65, I would swipe a couple of them too.

Hi guys,

And then was one with case like this:

Are there any other version I didnt talk about ?

Cheers

The one in my first post is a pretty modern "Ultraslim" not just a "Slim" charger. It appears to be significantly smaller than the previous type. Never seen either in person though.

I am offering 65 bucks for a used one. Maybe they will refill some of the 65 watters. I am just bummed that I ended up actually needing one after I hesitated to place a second order to get one.

I belive this is the latest one ...

Take a look here:

Code: Select all

http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/MIGR-72900.html

* The new AC travel configuration is 19% lighter and 15% smaller than the ThinkPad 90W Slim AC/DC Combo Adapter (41N8460).
* The new DC travel configuration is 64% lighter and 70% smaller than the ThinkPad 90W Slim AC/DC Combo Adapter (41N8460).

I dont have idea what they mean by saying AC travel configuration and DV travel configuration.

This power adapter is still in one box, right ? It may or is smaller but what else ? To be honest I dont like this new design The plastic thing on the power cord is really ugly

It also looks like they removed cable from car cigarette lighter so now you can connect it to power adapter only by dual charging cable ... so they prefer another connection than plain cable.

Overall I dont think its a good idea.


If anyone wants I can post pics of my 2nd gen AC/DC Charger


Cheers


Edit:

By the way on one of the webpages they shortened cable comming from Adapter to dual charging cable.

The one in your link is the same as the one in my first post.

Thank goodness. The 65 watters are back in the outlet store <sigh of relief> Now I don't have to buy an ultraslim to justify missing out of the deal

Honestly we need to keep the outlet on the DL I hate the thought of resllers swiping up everything from there.

Thanks for the heads up. Went and bought a couple.

Great deal. Bought one 65W adapter for my X61 for $7.5 shipped.
