    Hello,

    My brother got a ul50a and he asked me to perform a clean windows 7 installation, in the whole mess I mixed the charger from the ul50a with my ul30vt, they are exactly the same size but the ratings vary a little...

    can anyone tell me the input/output of the ul30vt?

    thanks

    If I was you, I would call Asus. Here's the number assuming you live in the states. 1-877-339-2787

    I was hoping that someone with a ul30vt would just look at their charger and tell me what it said..... didn't imagine it would be that hard.

    When you are in Mexico where the only official asus laptop released is practically the EEE pc, then yes, it's harder.

    You could ask this question in the official UL30VT thread...it's currently very active and full of people that might be willing to answer you.

    Note: this response isn't intended to be smarta$$ in nature. ;)

    Hey, the UL30 and UL50 is the same...mines says!

    Model = ADP-65JH BB
    Input = 100-240v 1.5a 50-60hz
    Output = 19v 3.42amps show's negative outside of the power plug and positive being the center female plug.

    Hope this helps! Although you might already gotten your answer!
