    Does anyone have experience with any 3rd party power adapters that are significantly smaller than OEM ones? I'm considering buying a netbook in the near future, and I'm hoping to find a super lightweight adapter to keep with me, as the amount I'll need to use the computer will vary quite a bit from day to day.

    Just hoping someone has looked for and found something.

    1. Most 3rd party adapters are larger and heavier than OEM's, if they are in the same specs

    2. I personally don't recommend using 3rd party adapters. The quality is not consistent
