Power Supply Options
Posted by: equant on 2007-12-11 09:59:41
Ok, so after asking opinions about which trackball powerbook to get, I go out and get a 540. Now I have this Belgian powerbook and I need a power supply. I'm thinking that I'd like to find another model powerbook with that comes with an adapter that can work with the 540 as well, so my question is, which powerbooks share the same power supply as the 540? All the 500 series? Any of the 100 series, or duos?

Thanks,

Nathan

As far as I know only the 500 series (520, 520c, 540, 540c and 550) used that adaptor. It has rather a unique connector and unfortunately they're not easy to find by themselves.

Thanks MacMan. I've noticed that they are hard to find.

I looked online for the pinout, but couldn't find it. Anyone know the pinout details.
