Review on 693711-001 677774-001 HP EliteBook 745 820 840 850 G1 G2 AC Adapter Charger; Probook 430 440 450 455 G1 G2; HP G42 G50 G56 G60 G61 G62 G71 G72 Power Cord by Mike Pedroza

I've had 3 of these at the moment. The first started overheating and melting within a month, although this didn't stop it from working for maybe 5 or 6 months. It was cheap and I assumed it was a one time mistake so I ordered another one. Luckily, luckily, depending on how you want to look at it, it broke again and melted in less than 30 days. It's a godsend because I was able to return it for free on the 3rd. The third melted and failed in just under 2 months, which is both pathetic and unfortunate because it only lasted a few weeks longer than the period I could have returned it for free. After being forced to order a fourth power supply in less than a year and not being able to get another one for free, I would definitely choose any company or product other than this one 1 .
