    Hey guys,
    I damaged my power adapter for my G1S and I need to buy a new one. What power adapter should I buy? Does it have to be Asus branded?
    I'm not looking for anything particularly good, just something that will do the job.
    Thanks :D

    You don't have to buy Asus branded adapters, but for a piece of mind, I'd stick with OEM Asus adapters. Keep in mind that Asus adapters are usually made by ITE or Delta.

    Targus 180W universal adaptor works a treat. I use one for my C90 which is from same era as your G1 so bet if you flip it over it will ask for 19V which is what the adaptor is rated to provide.

    If you are in the UK I do also have a spare 150W Asus adaptor rated 19.5V that needs a new home. Simply PM me if you are interested.
