[QUOTE="Exterminator, post: 102017, member: 2930"] find one with the same voltage and at least the minimum amperage that you need.The charging cord is basically a power supply and will only draw the amps needed to run it.So using a charger with 4.74a and your oem charger is 3.15a your laptop is only going to draw the amperage it needs from the maximum rated amperage of 4.74a from the replacement charger.The voltage is the most important thing if yours is 19 volts then the replacement should be 19 volts.The amperage that is shown is the maximum amperage that can be pulled from that charger so If your worried about a higher amperage your laptop will only use what it needs. So many of these are fine as long as they are 19 volts.I wouldnt get one that is less amperage than your OEM charger though. [/QUOTE]
