Laptop AC / Power Adapter / Charger Questions:
Do I need a power bar for my laptop computer?
No, you don't 'need' a power bar in the same way you 'need' a power adapter to run your laptop computer. It is, however, recommended that you use a power bar for several purposes. i) It 'cleans' line noise, increasing the expected life of your laptop power adapter. ii) It protects the laptop and laptop power adapter against spikes in electric current from your wall plug. Lastly, a power bar is often more convenient for plugging your laptop power plug into.
How should I carry my laptop ac adapter while I am mobile?
When you are packing your laptop adapter into a bag for transportation, you have to remember that the wiring attached to the ac adapter can loosen and break, causing a bad connection between the wall outlet and your laptop computer. It is important to remember never to coil your wires around the laptop power adapter. Always bundle up the wires in a coil and make sure not to bend or force the movement of the wires attached to the laptop power adapter, as this may cause the connections on your power charger to come loose or break.
What if my laptop power adapter was recently replaced and still doesn't power up my laptop computer?
If your laptop power adapter was recently replaced, and still doesn't power on your laptop computer, then you might need to have your power jack replaced on your laptop. Sometimes a faulty power jack connection can make it seem like your laptop ac charger is malfunctioning, even when your laptop power jack is the actual cause of the problem. We do offer laptop power jack replacement services, a 2-hour task that costs $119. We carry all laptop power jacks in stock.
