HP Envy 15 (v2) Power Adapter questions.

So I've been thinking about buying a new power adapter to replace el-giganto that came with it. I understand that there is at least one Kensington power adapter that works (model 33197). That one, IMO is a bit too large. Curiously, that adapter is not directly visible on Kensington's website for Laptop Power Adapters, but is searchable (by part number).

So my question is whether there are any people out there that have used, for example, the model 38066 or the model 38067 successfully? Those two models are smaller (physically) than the 33197, but they don't actually list the Wattage they provide (they're listed by Voltage and Amperage - which kind of makes Wattage, but not exactly). It seems as though they might be 90W adapters (as the product pages make continual reference to their power efficiency over "other 90W adapters" which leads me to believe that they're probably around 90W adapters.

Or whether the model 38031 or 38030 will fit? These adapters are a bit larger, but appear to offer more input amperage. Though they also say "Up to 90W output" so ...

From what I understand, the HP Envy 15 will throttle the machine with less than 120W of input wattage.

Also, the 33197 is apparently an "old model". Any thoughts?

 

see the Envy g2 owner's thread for models that are known to work

 

According to JJB, a 90W adapter will power an i5 Envy just fine (just make sure it comes with the N30 or N30B tip). I personally just got the the 33336US (same size as the 33197 you linked) and it plus the cables fits in a bag the same size as just the brick of the original 120W Envy power supply. Just make sure the adapter says it supports the Smart Pin, and you should be fine.

 

I just bought HP Slim Travel Power Adapter on Monday, hope it will work well

 

I did read that just now.

However, for a newbie looking for that kind of information, wading through now 500+ pages of stuff just to get to that point (particularly given the ... interesting search features ... of the forum) would be hideously painful. So I posted a new question instead.

 

Both Belkin and Targus have recalled their 'slim' power adapters for fire hazards recently. Stay with the HP adapters....
