    Dell has been making virtually the same 65W and 90W adaptors for all their laptops for the past few years. The one from the 610 will almost certainly work with the 620 and vice versa, so you can take the model number from either one.

    (For the record I'm currently using the 90W adaptor from my D830 to power a 4 year old Inspiron 500m)
