    Hello everyone,

    I have 2 T440s on their way and being a long time thinkpad owner, I have many 20V power supplies around the office. I'd like to keep using them so I don't have to buy new power supplies. But we all know that the power tips for the T440s are the slim type.

    So far I have found one Lenovo converter/adapter from a 20v tip to a slim power tip -- $26-$32 dollar per piece. That is pretty expensive.

    I also found the following but it is not clear it will work with a 20v tip.
    USD$7.00 - Power converter Cable Adapter For Lenovo ThinkPad X1Carbon 0B47046 - lunashops online shop

    I have already bought a few that works with 19v/16v tips but not 20v tips. So what are people finding out there? Where have you found your converter/adapter tips?

    Also, is the x1 slim tip the same as the T440s tips?

    Thanks all!

    Sailor
