looking to use this with an old Inspiron E1705, current charger states 19.5 volts @ 4.62 amps, any reason this would not work, or cause safety issues?

I would not recommend this charger period. It did work for the laptop but, I believe it is an issue with the manufacturing of the cord itself. Perhaps the charger I bought was a flawed one but who is to say? The power box melted completely during normal, responsible use. It could have easily burned my house down if it had not been caught. To me it is not worth the risk, pay the extra 10$ and get an actual Dell replacement cord. It is worth the piece of mind. Any charger you purchase must have sufficient amps output to charge the battery. The knock off chargers will xstate they work with your laptop model but that does not mean it has sufficient amps to actually work for yours. What it means is that it will plug into your laptop. If I had my way Amazon would look more closely at this manufacturer, Sunvalley Tech I think, and stop selling products made by them. As far as know there are no laws in place or government agencies that insure that proper testing is done prior to going to market, that is up to the manufacturer. We as consumers have to take their word that it meets the minium stamdards required . If the product is made oversees, all bets are off. A chep charger is certainly not worth your families safety or your piece of mind

I just purchased this in April 2014 and it just sparked and started smoking. Normal useage only. Thank goodness it happened in front of me.

I bought this adapter for my old Inspiron. I used it until the computer died. I got a new Dell Inspiron, which has now been a couple of years ago. I use this same charger on it. I have the one that came with the new computer, but use the old one when I take the computer into a different room. It works great still. It was TOTALLY worth the money!!! Great buy!

I use this with my old Inspiron 1505. It's exactly the same as my old charger, and works very well. I believe it should work for you.

look on the battery or in the battery compartment, it will tell you the volts and amps you need to charge your laptop. older hp's usually take the 90 watt chargers but I think these chargers are self-regulating with the volts and amps. check the manufactures website for model number. good luck

I also have a dell inspiron 1545 model #PP41L although it specifies 19,5V. The battery has worked wonderfully for me. Also, the company does offer a 30-day return policy. So although I do not think you should have any trouble, in the event that it does not work you can always send it back.

Sorry!!! I don't have that problem. My DELL is Inspiron 1505 and the charger works fine.

The charger is only designed to operate on 120 volts. A 220 to 120 volt transformer good for 5 amps would work. Richard k.

My laptop is a Dell Inspiron 1525. When shopping for a new battery, I checked to see that it was compatible with the Inspiron 1525, and that is the battery that I bought (and have had no problems). I didn't check the volts so I don't have an answer for that. I wish I could be of more help.

Wanda- I have this charger and use it on a brand new HP Envy 15" (not sure of the model). It does work and comes with a variety of plugs and connectors. It is smaller (thinner) than the standard charger but that comes with a price. Even at 90 watts it is under powered for a quad core laptop. It runs hot and if I am really challenging the processors I will get drop-outs (for lack of a better word) where the charger just can't keep up with the load. It's not enough to reject the charger but you have to be aware that it can't do what it's big brother does. I would prefer a 120 watt charger but this one works for travelling. I would probably give it 3-1/2 stars. Good luck!!

Not sure, however if the numbers match it should. That said, these adapters haven't stayed true to the description, I've received 3 from 2 sellers, and my brother has also ordered some for his, and they come as 3.25A instead of 3.42A, and 20V instead of 19V. It did work for a while however I believe there is a problem with some Asus where the power supply, A/C jack, and adapter get too hot, melt the soldering points both in the AC Adapter and the jack, eventually causing damage to the motherboard, power jack, a/c adapter, and potentially the motherboard. The batteries state "Do not use any other adapter other than the one designed for this battery" and I'm not sure if that plays a role as mine started having the issues before I ever used a generic adapter, I believe it is just faulty design by ASUS, combined with neglect/abuse on my end, leaving the laptop on with skype running would cause the system to overheat when I wasn't aware, and once the problem started it became a permanent issue. Where as it ran fairly smooth and cool initially. Hope this helps, just keep in mind it is cheap and easy if it works to order generic adapters from amazon, just monitor the heat. Mine melted to the point where I had to hold the cord in to the jack and apply steady pressure at just the right angle in order to maintain a solid charge, so I was constantly aware of when and how fast it got hot. Again, this may not be a big issue with a solid charge, the issue may be in part a result of a loose charge constantly disconnecting and reconnecting, also the battery I was using was on its last legs and that is what seemed to initiate the initial problems. But to be safe check the jack, adapter where it meets the jack, and area around the jack, and ensure that it isn't overheating.

Well, all I can say is that I use it with an Anker battery pack, which says 1.5A input current.As far as I know these new chargers, which output via a USB connector, establish sort of connection with a device being charged. And the device itself will only take whatever it is capable of.So it's not like the charger will shove those 2Amps down the device's USB connector.Your device is supposed to support whatever current is listed on the device. Otherwise it will just use as much as it is capable of.That's what I've been told.Hope this helps.

I am using this on a Sony VAIO. Right above the power (port) on my laptop it says 19.5v. I hope this helps.

I have an E1705. Look up to see what models are comparable for the adapter. There were a number of them per my memory. The ac adapter I received is a Dell and works perfectly.

I believe it is the same charger for your laptop. Verify the voltage but it should be the same.

This battery is rated at 4.5 amps according to the description. Generally, matching voltages is more important than matching amperages, but laptops chargers are pretty versatile. My laptop takes 19v/4.5a but it will charge with a 16v/3.5a, though more slowly. Your laptop would most likely work fine with this battery. I haven't seen any external batteries that offer 4.7 amps - 3, 3.5, and 4.5 amps appears to be standard.

The electrical requirements are 19V 1.65A. This is in little tiny letters on the lapdock case.The connector is not a common size. OD: 4 mm ID 1.7 mm. There are many chargers with the right V and A, but different connector. www.digikey.com or www.mouser.com stock the connector, if you can solder it on. I can solder, but took the easy route of finding compatible power supply on eBay.

HiActually your laptop need 45W (19V 2.37A) and this charger Output: 19V 3.42A. so the output is more than you need it, its working but not good for your laptop and Hardware..... ,search to charger output 2.37 A Best RegardsEng.Yasser

That model is in the product description, so you should be just fine :)I've had my charger for quite a while and I love how well it works with my Dell Inspiron N5510.

Well, it does have the same voltage requirements of the power supply meant for the N5110, however it has a higher output capacity. I'll be honest and say that I'm not sure how it's circuitry might change the charge rate and possibly damage your battery.When it comes to the power supply, I've been hesitant to swap. But if you could contact Dell, maybe they could give you some reassurance.You might try:Dell Inspiron N5110 + Power Supply Cord 19.5V 3.34A 65W
