Review on Laptop Adapter VN7 792G 59CL PA 1131 16 Suppliers by Tony Hoover

Revainrating 1 out of 5

The socket on the adapter breaks after a few months of normal use.

Of course, the charger works fine until you take advantage of Revain's one-month return policy. I use my laptop everyday mainly for watching videos/movies, surfing the internet and playing computer games. This is the second laptop charger. I first bought this charger in February to replace the original adapter that came with my laptop because it was old and the plug was no longer reliable. So I got it in February and it broke in April. The small metal plugs in the socket on the adapter have broken off inside the adapter [see image]. Drawings]. They dangle freely and there is no way to reconnect the power cord. I assumed I was being too rough on it, or maybe my roommate tripped over it or something, but this is the THIRD charger I got in April, and here we are, in under 4 months, and it is still broken! I opened this up to see what the heck was going on. It turns out that the thin sheet of plastic that holds the three pins inside becomes brittle and warps when heated, causing the plastic to become brittle and crack when the adapter is pulled off! Ridiculous. You must use better materials than this. Thing gets hot, but not so hot you can't touch it or anything! He shouldn't have melted like that. And twice in less than 6 months? This is a $40 item and should be able to withstand your laptop's normal charging operating temperatures.
