Title: laptop power jack Post by: genjix on February 12, 2011, 07:14:52 AM I did a bit of investigation and came across this page,
http://www.laptopjacks.com/view_part/LG-Laptop-DC-Power-Jack-LG41225.html Part Number: LG41225 Center pin diameter: 2.5mm (and lists my laptop there as LG P300) However my laptop has 5 contact points whereas that picture only has 3. I then saw this power jack which I believe is the same type, http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=400145746359 What does that metal cover do? For the description of another unrelated power jack, I saw "If your old jack has 3 pins only, you can easily remove the metal shield covering the DC Jack" <- so why do I need it? meh... any suggestions? I found half of the power jack I need... now it just needs it's winter jacket. Title: Re: laptop power jack Post by: mail2345 on February 12, 2011, 07:51:49 AM I suspect the metal cover is grounding.
