$9.21, each? I have a bookmark on another computer that sells them for
about $2.45 each, in singles, but they have a $20 minimum. I only have
two of those C5 cords, and three power supplies that use them. The Ebay
listing is probably his best bet, unless he knows of a computer
junkyard, where old laptops go to die.

Yeah, I know, that is why I said you had found a better solution.

Thanks,

We have tons of laptops and LCD monitors at work, but I don't remember
that plug! I ordered the eBay item, even with the shipping it isn't bad. I
need for the damn scanner I got screwed on by the eBay seller.

If I could have spared one, I would have given it to you, for the
shipping costs. The one for my laptop disappeared for a while, and I
found a brand new one with a spare HP power supply, but I have three
computers that use that cord and the same power supply.

let us know how the scanner works. It looks like the sheet feeder is
still available from Visioneer. I have about 20 of their different
scanners, but none have a sheet feeder.

Older Dells used them, as well as Gateway, to name two I've owned.

You could take the thing open and solder a cord in .

'You' could, but a real tech wouldn't even consider it. There is no
free space inside those small switching supplies, and any modifications
make you liable for any injuries, damage or deaths. The right cord is
cheap enough, so why screw it up?
