It works... that's about all I can really say about it.

However...
It overheats if its charging an empty/partially drained battery. But if it's just powering a fully charged battery, it's ok. Otherwise, it can literally burn your hand. It got to the point of letting off a melting plastic smell. Not what I would call safe.

As for the cables, extremely short. Keep your old cable that plugs into the outlet. Even the adapter end cable is still really short compared to the OEM version.

And DO NOT TRUST THE PICTURE!!! What you see is NOT what you get. Mine is double the size of what's shown, flimsy plastic construction, weak. It works... that's what I can say. Everything else is just plain bad.

This laptop charger gave out within 2 months after purchase. I'll try another one because I know how these things are sometimes........
Got another one and didn't even work right out of the box! Garbage!!!

Honestly, the product is working just fine. However, I have to say there's a bit of false advertisement here, whether it is an accident or some weird mix up. The product page specifies a 90w, 19v 4.74amps power supply. What I got was rated 65w, 18.75v 3.5amp.

Amazon, tell the guy selling this to fix their ad. Sure it works, but if my computer were to ever use up that 65w, then it'll be random shutdown time. I'll be keeping a close eye on this. Expect a follow up...

I just purchased the 65 Watt AC adapter for my HP DV7 and in 2 weeks the ac adapter died without notice. It was delivered fast and it did work good for 2 weeks. I dont know what phone number or who to contact to get it replaced under some sort of warranty?

I ordered a replacement charger for my laptop...they mailed me the wrong size. I called them and requested the correct charger. They said I had to go to the post office, mail back the wrong charger...and pay for return postage, then they would mail me the correct charger (2-3 weeks). What a complete waste of time. I went to Best Buy and got what I needed that afternoon.

It's HP's fault, not the manufacturer of this product, but it doesn't matter. It won't work for your 17-inch dv7 laptop.

HP originally sold the dv7 with an underpowered 65-watt adapter. The HP replacement adapter is 90-watts. No 65-watt replacement adapter will work. Order a 90-watt adapter for a different model, or give the ******** at HP $70 for their replacement (which is 90-watts). HP should have recalled them. I have gone through 1 12-volt car adapter, and 3 65-watt replacement adapters for mine, but none work. For all, the computer says, "plugged in, but not charging" and the battery quickly dies. Save yourself a lot of headache and expense, and just buy a 90-watt adapter for your 17-inch laptop.

Here is the HP original equipment link:

Here is the HP replacement parts link:

Note how the original equipment has a 65-watt ac adapter, but the HP replacement part is 90-watts.

Here is what you really need:
HP 90W Smart Pin Dongle AC Adapter (KG298AA)

The charger works perfectly with my computer. The cable from the adapter to the wall is shorter than the original one, so you may want to keep the old one if it works and you want the longer length. Otherwise, just perfect. Great price for the product!

Great price for a HP Laptop power supply. HP wanted $70 for the same thing and this cost $17 with free shipping!

Excellent product! Works flawlessly, and is much cheaper than replacement from HP. The charger arrived ahead of the estimated delivery date. I am a very pleased customer!

It was ok but it stopped working after 8 days...cheap price but I guess you get what u paid for.
