    Hello Notebookreview.com users.
    I registered to the forums because I tried my best to find the answer to my problem everywhere and couldn't find an answer.
    So I bought an Asus Q200e notebook from Best Buy retail store a few days ago, and loving it so far. The thing is that I tend travel a lot, and needed my laptop to work in emergency cases. So I bought a Lemar portable laptop charger also from Best Buy. So I opened up the portable battery to notice that it did not come with a tip that fits the Q200e. So my questions is can you guys help me identify the tip for the Asus Q200e or if possible help me find a tip that fits the Lemar battery to the Asus laptop.
    Thanks

    Edit: Already contacted Lemar and said that they carry the tip I need. Also contacted Asus to find the answer, still haven't answered.

    TL;DR
    Bought a portable battery, and didn't come with a tip that fits in my laptop.

    Why not take a ruler and measure your original adapter?

    Aftermarket adapters will usually provide a list of supported makes and models of laptops. Sometimes it's not listed on the packaging though, so you need to visit the site or contact support. It sounds Lemar took good care of you. :thumbsup:

    Asus may drag their feet in responding - if they respond - simply because a universal adapter is not their product; therefore, it's not in their interest (fiscally nor morally) to provide support for you for that.

    I installed a Samsung 840 Pro SSD in my x202e and my battery lasts significantly longer. I didn't do any time tests, but it's roughly 30+ minutes.

    Aye, the lack of a motor needing to power actuator arms and platter spins really helps; especially when going from a 7200RPM drive to a SSD.
