    Hi,

    Anyone ever bought just the plug which is attached to the lead, the 19v computer end, not the mains 110/240v one? the cable is damaged right near this plug, so I want to cut it a little shorter and solder a new one on. If you don't know where to get one, do you know how to measure and specify it so I can look on RS or simiar.

    Cheers.

    Thanks for that. Didn't think that specifying them would be that easy. I think I've sourced one from a place called Reveal Ltd, if they will send such a small order value.

    Radio Shack here in the US has them. You should be able to find a local electronic Store they should carry them.

    The UK version of Radio Shack, called Maplin don't have that size. Thought of that after my original question. Thanks.
