    I am trying to replace the tip for my Vaio laptop AC Adapter.
    Of course the old tip is missing, I have found some sites to buy just the tip, But I am trying to determine the inside/outside diameter in MM of the tip, as well as the length. So I can be sure to order the right size.

    I have talked with Sony technical support online and by phone, but even those idiots can't look it up. The best they can tell me is MAYBE and MOST of the tips are 3.22mm outside diameter, but I just don't trust them.

    My laptop model is PCG-FRV26
    and the ac adapter model is PCGA-AC19V7.
    Does anyone know where I can find the specific sizes of these tips? especially inside/outside diameter and length of the tip? Or web sites, I can look up my specific model?
