    Hi guys,

    I forgot to bring my power cord to class. Can I use one of my friend power cable to charge my laptop? What voltage can the w3v handle? Is there anything else I should know. I have about 50 min left.

    Thanks

    If your friend's laptop is also ASUS, chances are it might work. You'll have to check the voltage first from the web.

    My friend (a W3J) used my power adapter from my A8Jp. Up till now there is no issues, although i reminded him to bring his.

    if it's 65W, 19V, and 3.42A... it should be okay. Just make sure it's 65W
