    Hey,

    Anyone know of any resellers still selling an AC Adapter for the above (with international shipping to New Zealand)? Looking for genuine before I end up purchasing non-genuine from eBay.

    Sager is still selling them but international shipping to NZ is $150 USD - whereas the adapter itself is only $100 USD... A little bit steep IMO.

    Cheers

    Try contacting some of the Sager/Clevo resellers on this forum. They may be able to drop ship an adapter from China directly to you without having it be shipped to them first.

    Try Metabox.. They're in Australia so shipping is hopefully less!

    These kinds of prices are ridiculous o_O .

    Just buy a used 180W+ adapter with the right tip (or solder) from a decent brand. For instance, the Dell/Asus FA180PM111's are very good and have the same tip as many Clevos, the P150HM included (5.5mm x 2.5mm). It's also smaller than the original, at 369 vs. 517 cm³, so for $100 less you have an adapter that is:
    1. Just as good or even better (don't buy a cheap knock-off :vbeek: !!!).
    2. Significantly smaller.
    3. Re-purposed, sparing the environment.
