Just went through this with my HP Laptop. I tried Dick Smiths, Jb Hi Fis, That Computer Bloke etc
But just ended up going back to where i bought my laptop from. Ended up costing me around $100 as the charger had been updated by something else but well worth it.
If your going to try and seek one out yourself just make sure the one you buy has at least the right amount of Amps and Voltage, otherwise you wont have enough power to run the machine, To find that info just look at the sticker on the charger or the bottom of your laptop :D

They should be able to supply them or at least recommend another place to get one. You will find Laptop chargers are p*** weak so there will be a few spares around the place (thankfully).

I bought a new laptop charger for my LG last year, Leader Computers was the place I got it from. Them or any of their suppliers will be able to source them.

Go direct (cheaper) and just head to the blue door at the back of their car park, this is the warranty/repairs section and they will be able to order it for you.

If your going to try and seek one out yourself just make sure the one you buy has at least the right amount of Amps and Voltage, otherwise you wont have enough power to run the machine, To find that info just look at the sticker on the charger or the bottom of your laptop :D


I think you'd find the voltage is consistent across ALL laptops in Australia...
I'm yet to see any three phase laptops ;)

Yeah i assumed this too, but the guy at the computer shop insisted that I make sure anyway. I guess it's for those who may be trying to find these on ebay etc
