Custom laptop PSU

little_shiet · October 21, 2015

Hello fellas and dames,

I would like to ask you for help.I've Chicony A12-230P1A.

Specs:

Input AC: 100-240V 3.5A 50-60Hz (In my country we have 230V 50Hz)

Output DC: 19.5V 11.8A (230W)

Weight: 0,9kg / 1.98 lbs.

Dimension: 179 × 89 × 35 mm / 7.09 × 3.5 × 1.37 inch

I'm looking for any power supply with same output and suitable for my input.

I want lighter and smaller version. If it's not serial production is there any custom PSU laptop maker?
I've found Lind Electronics however they don't have 230V PSUs and 230W output.

Thank you for reading this, sincerely little_shiet

first your not gonna find a smaller or lighter unit that can output at that ampers. I wouldnt make one yourself, can be dangerous. Whats wrong with the charger you have now?

It's huge in bag and heavy. I don't want to make it by myselft but by some professional company. i thought if you use some expensive parts and re-design circuit or do some magic it's possible so I've to buy second same PSU for mobile purpose.

Most times they are large for a reason so you can't really make them smaller, there are units like theses but you will need to modify the adapter to suit your needs:
