Short af laptop power cable

Go to solution Solved by iamdarkyoshi,

The connector on your laptop charger is a C-5 IEC connector. If its a 2 pin, its a C-7 connector. This will help narrow down searches. I found this one by searching C-5 straight adapter

I also saw some right angled ones.

If these are too short, the one mentioned above should work.

Im the kind of guy who takes his laptop charger wherever he takes his laptop, but I find the standard laptop power cable very bulky;

Anyone know of a plug adapter with these two plugs that has basically 0 length? If not I might mod something myself with hot glue and solder...

Here you are, they make straight adapters also but those would not be ideal as any obstructions near the socket will prevent the power brick from being able to connect.
