    Does anyone know where I can find one? I have been looking for a while and can not find one anywhere. Its important that I have at least an auto adapter! If worst comes to worst can I just use one of those APC auto/air converters that you plug your charger in to?

    Both Belkin and iGo make a multi-adaptor that would suit you. They're not cheap though...

    hi CRM1712,
    This is the model I bought.
    http://www.kensington.com/html/1961.html
    I got it on sale at compusa for $35
    I'm very happy with it so far, it works well in the car. It's light, small and I can't wait until my next airline flight to try it out that way as well.

    Do either of you have the Inspiron 9100? The reason that I ask is because all of the products that I have found do not show anything for the 9100. They only go as far as the 8200...

    I don't have a Dell,
    but if you go to the link I gave it should say which models are supported. The 9100 is newer than the kensington model I bought, but I'm 99% sure yours is supported as well. It comes with 5-6 tips that cover the sizes used in most if not all notebooks and also uses 4-5 jumpers for all the different voltages notebook makers use.

    Well it is not supported by most due to the fact that it requires 150 watts of power.
