Need help with Iqon Battery & Charger

romperstomper · 17-09-2008 11:10pm #1

hi guys,

need to fix a laptop belonging to a mate (who bought it blind, the feckin' eejit).
Old Iqon 8640 with no battery and no charger. Can anyone point me towards somewhere I can get something that will work? Even just the A/C adaptor to get him started would be great.

I've emailed and rang Iqon but they were no help

Thanks

How about a universal charger? plenty available on the net.

considered it, but i'm doing this as a favour for a mate. don't want to buy something from the net, get it and realise it doesn't fit/work. this thing wants 19.6V & 6.3A and has its own A/C interface. how will i know which one fits? I was really hoping someone here could recommend me one they *know* will work

I've got these for people before. if ya click on system requirements you can check compatibility. unfortunitely Iqon is not listed. but i'd put my money that one of the adaptors would fit.

Meets you power requirements

on the down side they are big and have a fan on the PSU.

Doesn't really fit your requirements but might be some help.

looks good. how much? where can i get one? any bricks and mortar stores do them so i could bring the laptop in with me? thanks

haven't a clue, but they are available. I purchased from komplett.

If nobody can point you to a bricks and mortor store, PM me your address. I'll pop the full set of adaptors in the post to you tomorrow and you can check if any fit. Just promise to pop them back in the post. I don't use it often but i do need it every now and again.

Maplins and Peats both do Universal power supplies.

Do you still want the parts?

romperstomper · 25-10-2008 4:58pm

yes i still need them. do you have one that will work?

ClaudiusDrusus · 27-10-2008 11:37am

Yes, I think i will have a charger and a battery, too. I can tell it for sure tomorrow.
