Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Smartcharge NEW AC Power Adapter + Power Cord Replacement for Dell PA-10 Inspiron 300m , 500mCustomer Review: It was cheap, and you get what you pay for-downgrading my review Summary: 3 Stars
The price on this item was great. When I received it however, I could not insert the plug into the adapter-didn't fit. I emailed the seller, who was very prompt and courteous and immediately sent me a new cord (isolated problem to the cord w/the help of my other charger). This one didn't fit either. Then I was told that these had a tight fit and to 'shove it in' and if it broke they would send me a whole new set. I could not get it in no matter what, and I'm not a weakling. My husband, after some struggling, was able to get the parts together. It works, but I can never take the two components apart.
Because of the terrific price, I am giving it three stars instead of two, despite my troubles with it.
update: 4/22/09
2 months later: I can't pin the problem on it definitvely, but now both of my laptop batteries are ruined. One battery holds a charge for ~10 min; the other (my long life battery) won't last 10 sec. I've been through batteries before, but I've never seen performance degrade this severely or quickly. I hardly ever shut my laptop off-only hibernate-so only recently did I see a startup message saying that this adapter was not optimal (don't remember exact wording) for my laptop, even though the listing says it is. And the plug that goes into the laptop is now loose and comes out often. I've just placed an order for new batteries and adapters, and am going back to genuine Dell products-it wasn't worth the cost savings. I can't change my rating anymore-I would put it at 1 if I could.
