    Hi Guys - had anyone tried those cheap non genuine power bricks from ebay?
    they can be had for ~ 10 $, much cheaper than the genuine ones Lenovo sells for ~ 50 $.
    I would like to save some money, but I don't want to fry my laptop also :)
    If you had luck with a particular seller please let me know.

    thanks,
