Review on Adapter Charger Pavillion Thinkpad 80VF002JUS by Troy Palmer

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Works side by side. Great corner plug.

I am using this adapter with a 2018 HP Specter x360 15" 4k i7 with an Nvidia MX150. The best part of the charger is the USB-C right angle connector as opposed to the HP OEM straight connector When I plug my laptop in, the outlet is usually on the back, front, bottom, or left, etc., not directly to the right of my laptop Any movement of the laptop, d knees will strain the straight plug in the outlet, the vise will strain the Little or no right angle plugs as the socket is on the right side of the laptop. Now on to why I only gave this charger 4 stars 5. When this charger is plugged in the laptop shows the message "HP recommends using the original power adapter", which is very annoying. Before purchasing this adapter, I compared the power output of this adapter with that of the original When you reach 20V (20V 2.25A vs. 20V 5A). Another difference I can see is the 45w vs 90w adapter (HP OEM). The only problem I see with it is probably when you load the Nvidia MX150 graphics card and CPU with the game. Then the power consumption may not match the power consumption. I don't have games on this laptop so it wasn't a problem for me. Overall this thing is more compact, charges well on the go and I haven't had any issues so far. Great charger, highly recommend but it's not an HP replacement.

Pros
  • Very impressive
Cons
  • boring packaging
