I really really really love these power cords and i will be getting a few more as back up. the original cords that came with the computer were very thin and my cats loved chewing on them - which meant that my computer kept losing power.The Power Adapter works very well for my Acer laptop and I would use this brand again and it wasn't expensive for me to buy all the other companys wanted more money for a laptop ac adapter/power supply cord.thank you ukcharger.co.uk.
