HP Pavilion dv6000: power adapter replacement - OEM vs 3rd part (fire safety)

A friends laptop needs a new power adapter.  The current one is broken at the wire, exposing some wire so I used a Ribbon insulation on it.

To get a replacement from HP, it would cost approximately 62 + $12 for shipping.  The small town (Anchorage, Alaska), a replacement, would be about $59.

On eBay and Amazon, I found a handful to about a third of the price.  How safe do what they consider the problem with HP on reminders with problem of fire power adapter?

Moreover, I found on eBay that has "HP" on them.  Is - is this true?

Thank you

No way to know if "HP" eBay adapters are real, unless it is a seller with a high positive feedback and the auction uses the 'authentic' word, so you can be sure that it is a part of HP used, real and is safe to buy.

"Compatible" adapters have come a long way in recent years, and I will use them on older laptops where finances dictate. A bit like the batteries. If you can afford 'authentic', get 'authentic', but 'compatible' or knock-off adapters are pretty safe to use if they come from a reputable seller. I'm more concerned about reliability. They tend to last a shorter time than the adapters authentic and are not quite so solidly built. This means that there is a slightly higher risk of electrical problems? No doubt, but not to a great extent. Laptops electrical fire issues are as rare as being struck by lightning. But as always, you get what you pay for.

  • HP Pavilion g6-2264sd: adapter replace Ralink Wi - Fi RT3290

    Hello guys,.

    I recently bought a new router that supports 5 GHz to increase my internet speed. Unfortunately, my HP Pavilion laptop 2274sd g6 only supports 2, 4 GHz. is there a way to replace my network adapter so I'm able to connect at 5 GHz?

    My laptop uses the Ralink RT3290 8011.11b/g/n

    I already checked the service manual for supported devices, unfortunately none does support 5 GHz:

    Thanks in advance

    Hello:

    The Ralink RT3290 wireless adapter is a single band wireless (2.4 GHz only) card.

    Note: whenever you see a wifi adapter N with a suffix of b/g/n, it is a single band card.

    Dual-band cards have a suffix ending with a/b/g/n or a/g/n.

    You are right... HP offers not all cards dual band for your laptop, and if you try to install one, BIOS refuse the card and put an end to started until the wlan unsupported card is removed.

  • r8500 Power adapter needs to be replaced

    Hi guys,.

    Unfortunately, my puppy has decided to go into my computer room and causing havoc with power cords (didn't hurt fortunately but it has decided to start chewing on large parts of the adapters, only good side of things, it's that he didn't have a wee on it!)

    Anyway, I can't find a power adapter replacement online for this specific router. Is there any place I could find an or can support netgear help me buy another (I can't be the only person who needs a replacement power adapter). I don't want to get the bad either and short-circuit this unit.

    So if there is someone who knows where to find one, or could help me to find the right person to netgear to connect with I would really appreciate it!

    @ifixidevices Like E - Bay is a not authorized reseller, consider buying a new power adapter.

    The part number is 332 - 10631-01.

  • Power adapter for HP Pavilion dv6000 AC

    Please forgive me if this is covered in another post, but I couldn't find an easy answer elsewhere in the forums.

    My sister-in-law lives out of State and think that its power for its HP Pavilion dv6000 adapter is dead although I can't be sure of its description is not the other common problem with the input shorted DC Jack.
    I have two power adapters I could post him even if it is the exact HP replacement part.
    One of them is an adapter OEM HP Compaq series PPP014H Ref.: 310744-001 and the other is a Targus AC70u adapter.
    Will be one of these work safely for his laptop? Are there any problems I should warn him?

    Thanks in advance for any advice you can offer on this issue.

    310744 001 is for the dv6000 and work

  • Power adapter - HP PAVILION DV7-3150EQ

    Hello

    I bought the HP PAVILION DV7-3150EQ, and it stops itself almost instantly after the initialization of the operating system (just at the moment where the HP Setup programs starts). I have two suggestions for this topic:

    1. the CPU heats too quickly and the protection of the motherboard turns on and off the computer.

    2 in the specification of the product, I noticed the power adapter must have 120 W power (http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c01997646), but I received with adapter 90 W (adapter fault current may have been replaced by the Distributor, I don't know), and what I think, is that it does not provide the computer with enough power so it shuts down. What I mean, is there a strict rule on food and their use adapters (specified model should be used with the adapter specified etc..)

    Can you guide me I just think, or there might be another problem.

    Hello

    Thanks for the reply erico.

    I was looking for an explanation on the closure and the motherboard overheating protection seemed reasonable to me. I was wondering is this a common problem or I am luck one of perhaps hundreds of thousands made notebooks with Core i-5?

    I removed the battery and left it on the power adapter, but it's the same thing.

    I did not understand you completely clear. You mean that even with less powerful adapter(>120 Watts) the laptop should work well, and the battery should be charged, but for once more. Or should I contact my supplier and only get the right adapter (120 Watts).

    Best regards

    Contact your provider and ask so he could be replaced by the model in the specifications of the laptop. The 90 Watt power adapter will work, but this isn't what has been specified to be included in the purchase.

    I suggest that you try a hard reset

    Remove the battery and the AC adapter.

    Press and hold the power adapter for > 15 seconds.

    Plug the power adapter (with the battery always off)

    Press the laptop power button.

    Your laptop is now boot into Windows?

    If it is not then

    Press the power button and press the F8 key to enter the BIOS.

    If you are able to enter the BIOS and make the memory test.

    Please post your results here in your thread.

  • Cable replacement HP Envy 14 spectrum (14-3011tu) power adapter

    Hello Forum,

    I just managed to head out of my cable power supply HP Envy 14 spectrum (14-3011tu).  The power adapter is one of these adapters to travel HP (65W - 574487-001) with interchangeable heads.  I called HP Australia and various providers of HP to see if I can get a replacement interchangeable heads or even a replacement adapter all but nobody has them in stock (although they supply base but not the correct head and no one knows when they'll get extra stock).

    -Does anyone know if there's a cell phone similar HP that uses the same 4.7 mm long head adapter like the HP Envy 14 spectrum (14-3011tu)? I would like to buy one so that I can hack together a new cable interchangeable head then I expect new stock coming OEM.

    PS. I've already ordered some after-sales adapters off eBay to fit the Envy 14 spectrum but they are too thick to fit in a few clams micronos decision-making.  The picture below just in case you encounter the same headache like me.

  • HP Pavilion 6500 goes out when the power adapter plugged

    My Pavilion 6500 (specifically dv6623cl) turns off when I plug in the power adapter. If I plug it in, then turn on the laptop, it automaticly turns off before loading windows. If the laptop is already started, and I can plug the power adapter, it immediately turns off. I can charge the battery without any problem, also while the laptop is turned off, but as soon as I turn it on with the adapter plugged it stops, I checked the battery through HP battery check and he said its good, he is holder of a charge very well and everything, the only change made to the laptop hardware wise was an upgrade memory I had no such problems until the upgrade of memory, but I do not see how it would affect the power on the aspect, in order to make a system restore, if ever, I need, the poweradapter must be plugged and theres other system functions that require the adapter complete, it is a question that must be corrected

    any ideads what the problem would be?

    any help is much appreciate

    Thank you, rayandmaura

  • HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC: replacement AC adapter

    Hello

    Update: I found the AC adapter plug. Thank you...

    I bought a HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC (used). The problem is that the AC adapter is overheating and battery (in Windows) information are constantly changing, "load" to "do not load"

    I would buy a new power adapter (including the power cord), but I want to make sure I buy the right, because the one I have right now says spare part (the original owner could buy a fake). The battery is also marked as a spare.

    Information on parts (those I have right now):

    AC adapter / CC: 65w. Input: 100-240 v ~ 50-60 Hz 1.6(1.6A). Output: 18.5V (18.5) 3.5 A (3.5 A)

    Dear customer,

    Welcome and thanks for posting your question on the Forum of Support HP

    It seems that you are not able to turn on the laptop and tried to solve the problem

    Please perform steps listed to find out if it is a hardware or software problem below:

    1. remove all cables and devices, disconnect them and try to turn on the device

    2. check the LED light situation and ensure the action of the spring button / stop is normal

    3 Exchange with a well known power cord and the AC adapter

    4 Pack no adapters are available, check if the power adaptor is slightly warm

    Note: This will give us an indication that the power adapter could be good

    5. do you know if the laptop was in battery or power adapter when you used the last time

    Note: Make sure that there is no spill of liquid or cutting

    6. check if the Port of the AC adaptor is loose/broken

    Note: If the laptop is not on even with a power adapter well known, this confirms the hardware failure with the system board or power DC Circuit
