Need a 5.5x3mm female to 5.5x2.5mm male charger plug converter, please help me find one!

[Olympus81]

Hello!

I have a Samsung R528 laptop, with a CPA09-004A / AD-6019R charger, that possibly has an 5.5x3mm plug. A firend of mine gave me a laptop, for which he couldn't find the charger (PSL49E-00C005KS) and possibly has a 5.5x2.5mm charger plug. So my intent is to use my laptops charger to try out this other laptop (both laptop needs equal Voltage input), but I couldn't find anywhere a 5.5x3.5mm female to 5.5x2.5mm charger plug converter. So my question is, to please give me some tips in what webshops could i possibly find such a charger plug converter?

I'm mainly asking for EU webshops, or maybe Chineese ones.

Thank you!

I suspect that it will be much easier to find a compatible charger. The parameters that matter are voltage, amps or watts, plug size and plug polarity (almost always centre positive). The information, except for plug size, is usually on a label on the bottom of the computer. The only plug adaptors I have come across, some years ago, were for Dell which had changed from a big plus to a smaller one. Businesses had large stocks of the old PSUs and wanted them to fit the new computers they had just bought.

Might also have better luck finding something used locally. At least here in the US AC Adapters tend to be expensive to buy new, but are relatively cheap to source locally

Important correction: Sorry I have misstyped in the title before: The female side of the converter actually needs to be 5.5x3mm and NOT 5.5x3.5!!! (Dunno' how to edit the thread's title here tho'???)

I need the cheapest solution as possible. So the priority is still the charger plug adapter. (Both PSU's have the same Voltage output, so that won't be an issue).

The title has been adjusted.
