1.0 out of 5 stars Plug not wide enough, March 28, 2010

A Kid's Review

This review is from: RAVPower PA-10 Replacement 90W for Dell Inspiron 1150,1720,1721,8500,9200,9300,9400,E1705. (Electronics)

Clearly disappointed!!! I bought two of these, each having the same problem - the distance between the prongs was not wide enough to accommodate a standard outlet. I don't know what "standard" they were aiming for, but it did not exist at several of my friends houses nor mine. I suspect they are selling these at a low price because someone screwed up on the engineering and design side, and they need to get rid of them because they are not in specification(they don't fit). For whatever the reason, both of the units I purchased had the same (in fact identical) problem.

That being said, at one point I did manage(don't ask) to get one of these in a socket and plugged into my Dell laptop. Worked, for about an hour before the dell reported an error saying it detected a non-standard power supply, subsequently crashing my system. If that was not bad enough, a strong smell was coming from the supply (like it was melting and shorting out), and the unit was quite hot. Clearly, I should have given up earlier.

It is not worth it to return these (and not Amazon's fault) so I just chucked them.

When I thought about it a little more, I felt it better to protect my investment spending the additional money on the OEM version, which I purchased and is working well, even though I thought the cost is quite a bit higher then it should be. I don't know what came over me.

My suggestion, stay clear looking somewhere else.

1.0 out of 5 stars Terrible, worked for 3 months, December 22, 2010

The adapter worked for 3 months but it would get extremely hot. I was always amazed that the plastic never melted. Now, three months later, it can no longer charge the battery. Also, the plug that went into the computer was always coming out, it definitely was not as snug as the original one.
The original adapter lasted a little less than 3 years, this one lasted 3 months. Buy something else.
