    Edited.
    I just finished test the plug, and strip the cable back at the plug end and found the cable broken on the negative wire, this wire is not shielded, the wire broken about 25mm from the elbow plug.
    I temporary repair the wire for now.

    So Noone makes a replacement tip, as in soldering a new tip on the lead.
    The charger is OK, it just faulty tip end?
