Dell G15 (5510)

On the Dell website it says has one option that says 240W (the one I was using is 180.0 W) is compatible with mine but for $140 I want to be 100%

Also my old one shocked the shit out of me because it was frayed and I had no idea so I want to be 1000% sure so I don’t get accidentally shocked again.

    Do the sockets fit? Going from 180 to240w should be fine. As long as the expected voltage match on the brick’s supply it should be fine to go higher in wattage.

    In terms of wattage, it’ll only draw the current it needs.

    In any case you can probably find a 3rd party brick that works just fine for way less. If you have a microcenter near you, they can help. Or there’s always crapazon.
