    just because no one responded in 14 minutes only means that you're impatient... nothing more.

    Asus has a car adapter for 55w/60w/65w ... if you have a Z70va that particular model uses a 90w power supply and you can't use this adapter on that one..... but you can on the Z70v and Z70a as well as the Z71v and Z71a for that matter incase they were one of the models you were looking for.

    Asus only has one car adapter at this time....... The only centrino systems that need more (90w) are the Z70va, the W2v and the Z83v (A7v).... technically you can go out and find a universal that has a 90w output and it'll work... usually they are a bit more bulky, but they'll do the job. Also, consider an invertor... and just use your normal ac adapter.....
