    Compact charger options for Vaio S-series

    I'm curious if people know of any compact chargers for the Sony Vaio S13?

    I am aware there is the VGP-AC19V51 charger with the additional USB-ports but the damn thing is even heavier than the original one! :eek:

    The original one has an output of 19.5V @ 4.7A but even that one supposedly isn't enough when doing heavy gaming. e.g. it slowly drains the battery.
    What I am actually looking for is a charger that I can bring with me when traveling that is lightweight and compact.

    I could actually deal with lower output if it means I can bring it with me all the time. When traveling I will only use it for browsing and some skyping so just charging the battery is enough.

    Anyone that have found a good alternative?
