This is my third power cord. The one that came with my HP Compaq 6710b started having problems long ago and had to be retired. I ordered a third party replacement that ran VERY hot and towards the end started making a very disturbing popping sound. I was hesitant to order another HP cord but the first one took much more abuse than the second, so I figured I'd stick to what gave me the best results. This one is working fine and hasn't presented any "quirks" that I've come to expect from these cords.

I ordered and received 4 of these power supplies to use as spares for our employees. 2 of the 4 were non-functional. Tried them on several HP laptops in the office. The 2 that did "work" were very hot to the touch after less than an hour of being plugged in and when plugged in made the New Hardware Found setup run and state that a network port was now available, but cable was unplugged, originals do not do this. The label on them says they are HP supplies, the labels look like the label on the originals, but it's not affixed like the originals. The label on the originals would be very hard to remove, as it is almost fused to the power supply, but these are just cheap stickers. They look like the original, but they don't feel like the actual HP supplies I have. The power plug prongs that go into the wall are too narrow, but will fit when you wiggle it back and forth to get it into the outlet, the supply plug to the laptop is very loose and easily comes out of the laptop.

All in all, just real crappy counterfiet. If you're going to make knock offs, just call them something else, don't try to say they are HP Orignal when they are clearly not. Oh and make sure they work, that would be helpful too.

DO NOT BUY.

After two days of light use the adapter almost caught fire. I should have known that it was too good to be true. When I lifted the adapter it was way too light and to small to be from HP. So, I would advise buying the adapter from HP's website and paying whatever price it is for the real thing.

An original HP Adapter at such a cool price..Unbelievable. I got it yesterday and started using it instantly. May be a slow moving item but still it is not available at this price in other stores. Sleek design and light weight adapter it is.

This power adapter was cheap and it's even supposed to be HP brand. Highly recommend this option.

One thing that happened to me when my previous power brick was failing is I would get high CPU and general unresponsiveness in a HP Compaq 6710b. I looked everywhere and ended up finding it was the power brick, which had begun to fail on me.

I just bought it from about 2 months it works fine and didn't heat up the processor as the old ones which i bought before did it's prices is great as well.

Its a life saver, the item works perfectly, the only thing that scares me a little is that it does get quite hot.

This charger was very economical vs going into a store and trying to buy a universal charger..word of advice do-not buy a universal charger unless its your last option..or in desperate need of a charger! :p

Purchased Dell adapter and it nearly caught my house on fire. There was a short after only 4 months of use!
