We use the Lind brand of 12v adapters, with the yellow tip for the newer Toughbooks
The 8 amp output are recomended, but I have powered the cf-30 with the smaller older 5amp output long term without issue
Here is an example

+1 for Lind. We have used them for years at work with only one failure that I am aware of. And I am really not sure how he literally melted the cigarette lighter plug-in portion. The brick still works fine after the plug was replaced.

But I also own the IBM, and its 72W output should pull a CF-30 quite nicely ( Lind's Model # PA15-15-1795 Power Adapter for the CF-30 is 78W). -

What are the specs on the IBM adapter that works on the cf29,but not on the cf30
I too have a box full of the IBM 22P9003 combo 12v/120v adapters
I have not tried these 4.55a output units on my cf-30's as these inexpensive adapters my intended use for these was on the pdrc screens and cf-73's -
I use the IBM 22P9004 ,16V 4.55A, which work for all the 29,30,52.
I love the slide cover :
add pic.

For those who do not know this particular IBM unit, the slide covers the AC & DC input sockets: the three-pin is the AC input, while the four-pin is for the 12V DC input.
Mine have all three input plugs; AC, DC and Aircraft Seatback Power (which shares the DC cord & socket). -
Another thing on the IBM combo adapters
If you are buying them used on ebay , around 80% are missing the dc cord
You have to read the fine print
TopCop's link has the required cords -
