Thomas, Pangolin adaptor options?

[abulluck]

Thomas. Do you have some aftermarket options for replacement power adaptors for a pangolin performance?

I am looking for an adaptor that is as small as possible for portability.

Can't remember which version I have but I got it this past December.

Thanks

With adapters, smaller *usually* means less maximum amperage. If your adapter can't support the proper amperage for your machine, it can cause the adapter to get very hot and/or die, or it can cause damage to your machine.

If you just need a second adapter, you can order it from our website...

I don't really have any after-market recommendations, but if you find one that matches the specs on the back of your adapter and has the proper size jack, you should be fine.

I guess I can't go smaller then cause the stock one gets very hot with normal use (I usually downclock my processor too).

Oh well, thanks anyway.

The pangolin is one damn fine laptop, but the battery life is its achilles heel.

I know it has a dedicated graphics card, but not sure why they don't make a larger battery for it. After all, it is a light laptop for what it has, so a little bulk and weight in the form of a decent battery wouldn't be too much of a penalty.

Thank you! I'm dying for a bigger battery. I'll be taking this machine to Europe in about four months, and I'd kill for a decent 9 cell.

I know I've said this before, but I too would love a 9 cell if it were made available for the Pangolin.
