Dell G15 (5510)

On the Dell website it says has one option that says 240W (the one I was using is 180.0 W) is compatible with mine but for $140 I want to be 100%

Also my old one shocked the shit out of me because it was frayed and I had no idea so I want to be 1000% sure so I don’t get accidentally shocked again.

    Things to look for:

    • size and shape of the plug that goes into the laptop and the charging port on the laptop
    • voltage & amperage: the chargers output voltage must be the same, the amperage must be equal or higher but never below the required amperage otherwise stuff starts to get warm and may potentially get too hot
    • read your laptop chargers label

    Or if you don’t have a charger read the laptop specs

    It’s recomended you get a manufactory one that’s made for your laptop which you should be able to Google, make sure you’re not getting fake chargers either because those can cause house fires

      output voltage must be the same

      Or check what the laptop accepts. Sometimes it is a range.
