XPS charger has died

    After my battery dwindling down to approximately 8 minutes of usage on a full charge, now my charger has gone and bit the dust too.

    I think it's because of some exposed wire as a result of wrapping the cord around the main charger case when carrying it around which I think ended up tearing the plastic casing and eventually ruining the wiring, or something.

    In any case, the adapter now has no green light when plugged in, and is sending now power to the laptop.

    So, I'm hoping there's a place (in Dublin) I can pick up a new adapter for cheap? Or, if anyone has one to spare I'd be happy to buy it off them.

    Thanks

    Thanks for the replies. I found an ad for a Latitude d620 charger on adverts, but I'm wondering if it's safe to use it on my xps?

    A d620 is;
    Input: : AC100-240V
    Output : DC19.5V 4.62A
    Power : 90W
    Connecter size : 7.4*5.0mmmm
    

    and an XPS m1330 charger is;
    Input: : AC100-240V
    Output : DC19.5V 3.34A
    Power : 65W
    Connecter size : 7.4*5.0mmmm

    Btw. You can read about it on website if You googled.
