Universal adapter with 34 tips

This 96 W universal AC adapter ships with 34 interchangeable DC tips covering a wide range of notebook brands. Adjustable output spans seven voltages from 12 V to 24 V, letting one unit replace several dedicated chargers. International input of 110-240 V at 50/60 Hz makes it suitable for travel, office or repair-studio use.

Sustained load behaviour

The adapter delivers up to 85 W continuous output at 20 V and 11.8 A, with lower-voltage settings rated at 4.5 A and the 20 V and 24 V settings at 4 A. Selecting the correct voltage before connection prevents overload and keeps the unit running steadily during extended charging sessions. Corded electric design ensures a stable mains connection without battery drain.

Build and connectors

A single adaptor body accepts all 34 colour-coded tips, including barrel, tuning-fork, core-pin and proprietary Dell, Lenovo and Toshiba styles. The package includes a US two-pin power cord for immediate desktop use. Polarity must be verified on each tip before plugging into a device, so technicians and travellers should check the connector marking each time they swap tips.

Questions about this item

How hot or noisy does the 96W adapter get when it runs continuously at 20V 11.8A?

The adapter has no fan and relies on passive convection; at full 85W load the case becomes warm but stays within normal operating limits for a sealed plastic supply.

What must I already own to use the 34 interchangeable tips with my laptop?

You need a laptop whose DC jack matches one of the included tip sizes — for example 5.5×2.5 mm, 7.4×5.0 mm, 4.5×3.0 mm or the 3-hole Dell connector — and whose voltage requirement falls on one of the seven selectable outputs 12 V, 15 V, 16 V, 18 V, 19 V, 20 V or 24 V.

Will the adjustable 12 V–24 V output work safely alongside an older 19 V-only Dell brick I keep as a spare?

Yes — set the universal adapter to 19 V 4.5 A and it will deliver the same voltage and polarity as the original Dell supply, so both can power the same notebook interchangeably.
