    Hi,

    I'm currently searching for an ac adapter for my CF-30 Mk2. I've seen CF-AA1653ASC and CF-AA1653AM adapters
    listed in official Panasonic documentations for CF-30 MK3.
    I assume they would fit MK2 as they have the same output voltage (15.6V) and current (5 A)
    as needed by MK2. Is that correct? Also I was wondering If I could go for something with the same output voltage but
    higher current like CF-AA5713A M1 which offers maximum 7.05A (Because I found a good deal on ebay for one).
    And I think the most important question is if the plug in these adapters will mach my CF-30's dc power jack.
    I'd appreciate it if people would help me find a compatible ac adapter model.

    Thanks,

    You can use the 5A, 7A or 8A versions... just make sure the output is 15.6V and you are good.

    Basically the higher the amperage the faster you charge.

    I think I want to go with toughasnails suggestion:
    Panasonic CF-AA1653AM
    The only problem is that it only ships within the States. I was wondering if any of the folks in the States can
    help me with this.
