The 2nd year of my Ideapad didn’t have a auspicious start with my AC adapter conking out. Doubting whether warranty would cover it I was on the lookout for a AC adapter when I was given three choices – 1) Original Lenovo AC adapter – Rs. 1,500 2) OEM Lenovo AC adapter – Rs. 750/- 3) Universal Laptop power adapter – Rs. 650/-
Even though I was hesitant to buy a Universal power adapter main because whether it will be reliable and safe to my laptop, my fears were allayed by my friend so went ahead and bought it. I did my research on the net and found what size adapter pin is for my laptop and what were the power ratings.

As you can see from the above photo, that was the contents of the package. Even though the adapter box and the power plug doesn’t seem as solid as the original one. It was ok and there is a switch at the side to control the output voltage and a light at the top to indicate the output voltage. I think its safer to put a tape above the switch to avoid accidental changes. Moreover I tested it with a multimeter to check the actual voltage indicated is the output and it passed that test. So for almost a month now its been going without a hitch.
It seems it can fit multiple gadgets provided the pins (6 were in the set) and the output voltages matches the needs of your gadget. And it comes with a 6 month warranty.
