To charge my laptop I have to apply pressure for the power to charge. the chrg. cord is ok the problem is internal. Do I need a new socket too?

Not sure. But on my ASUS laptop the prong inside the DC in power jack board was loose and eventually broke off inside of the power cord charger connection. I replaced the DC in power jack board and it fixed my problem.

You probably need a new board if the pin inside the charger is not loose. The problem I found with the board is that the connector breaks where it is soldierd to the power board and to have to apply pressure till it can no longer make a connection.

Its internal.....this part will be the fix which I purchased but did not use. Once I took apart the laptop I easily soldered the square part that had broken connection on this board. I used enough solder so it wont happen again, and will keep this piece for backup. If you cant solder use this to fix it, it's plug and play. Also if you need a step by step just Google the laptop model with DC fix and you'll see how to take the laptop apart. Pretty easy.

The socket comes on the board in this configuration as I ordered it. Since I am not an expert solder-er, I decided to order them pre-attached. It sounds like you are having the same problem that I had prior to replacing the board and socket, so this purchase and about an hour of laptop disassembly will fix your problem.

Had the same problem until it finally burnt out. One of the large pins on the socket component's solder joint was completely black on the board. I successfully repaired my laptop using this component and following the instructions at insidemylaptop.com website http://www.insidemylaptop.com/disassemble-asus-n53s-laptop-fix-dc-power-jack/. I did not require any additional components as this one does include the socket that accepts the plug from the ac adapter.

Hey, Wyelin. Really sorry for that. I'm afraid that the charger can't charge for the computer because its capacity is too small and the voltage can't support.

Cigarette lighter or adapter socket works. Return it , it didn't last long anyway

Make sure that you bought the right battery first. Look up what kind of laptop you have usually it is printed on the laptop somewhere. Mine is a toshiba satellite. Then google what kind of battery it takes. Make sure that the battery is properly installed and locked in place(tabs near battery) and that it doesn't wiggle. Next is the charging unit. Make sure that its fully put together and connected to your pc power slot. If the battery is right and the power charging unit is fully conected and still no charge check to see if there is an orange light when you plug in the charger. If there is your prolly have a defective battery and should return it, if not then you prolly need a new charger or internal charger connector(pc end).

Bought it a month ago, the cord is hardwired to the original 12v socket adapter, you could use other adapter and a Micro-USB cable.

I charge mine on the wall socket with a plug-in that accepts USB. Even though it doesn't recognize on your computer, you should see a lightening bolt where the battery is to indicate whether it is charging.

call them and tell them what is happening..........my problem ended up being a spit in the rubber casing of my electric cord about an inch from the end where it connects to the computer and therefore it was providing the full power of energy to charge the battery, so I don't know whats causing the problem for your battery to fully charge...........hope all goes well for you

It needs a new batttery, or the charger is bad.Check the volt output on charger.

I have answered this before. The plug that goes to the laptop was too large and we returned the product.

Probably a loose connection in the connection inside the laptop for the charger. Or wrong charger tip. First is most likely

I would no rush to replace the power adapter just yet. If you can-try a similar power adapter with the same power and plug. IF you have one you can try it and see if the monitor fires up. If you have a compatible battery you can also try that. Normally the power adapter is OK. It is probably the monitor itself. I have never found a defective power adapter in all of my 52 years. I have seen circuit boards that are faulty on new products. If all else fails-ask the gift giver to exchange it for you.

There should be a connector for your laptop. Else you may try the specific connector separately. The j or k connector sent with the charger should work.

I use the power cord that came with it.The previous power cord did not fit the new cord.

Dear Demetre,I am the kind of guy who keeps useful extra items. The darn hub didn't work when it came. I read someone's comment that the power adapter was too small, so I looked in my stash of power packs [some people call them "Wall Warts!"] and found one rated 5V 1Amp. Since then, it has worked, but it's junky - the sockets do not fit smoothly. I notice that everyone else is using 3 - 5 Amps. The item they sent to me was tiny and it was much weaker than my 1 Amp unit.

Your laptop charger is a switching supply and connecting it to PWM controller may not work. Try connecting the controller to a good DCsupply such as a 12v battery and see if it works. Be sure the input polarity to the controller is correct. The controller is designed to operate from a clean DC supply and control a DC motor. Give some feedback on your application.

i think you should start with trying another charger. since its a micro-usb port it shouldnt be too much of a problem finding one. you should also try different sockets... the electrical output may differ a little bit. if the problem still persists, i assume its the battery. try discharging it and (however) charge it again up to 100%. your next option would be buying another battery... good luck!

Have the terminal checked where the charger plugs in. It may be getting or is loose in the laptop. You can sometimes tell if this is a problem by wigling the charger end slowly when it is in the laptop.
