I am not sure.... there are so many different ends.... I had to cut and attach a different end for the item I used to charge... best bet: is to try it...maybe get lucky with a good fit.

USB only provides 5 volts which would most likely be not enough to charge your laptop. If you want to charge your laptop in a car you would be better served getting an 12V DC to 120V AC inverter with adequate wattage.

There are several options to charging a USB device other than a computer. Many stores carry car adapters that plug into your car's power point and converts it to 5V USB. There are also home devices that do the same.

I believe it is the same charger for your laptop. Verify the voltage but it should be the same.

The unit comes with a USB cord that you charge it on your computer only or laptop. It needs a USB port to charge the unit, no other adapter.

what you have to look for in any laptop is the color of the end you plug in to your laptop. This particular adapter is the one I bought and works very well, I also have an Acer Aspire and I say buy it, it is a great buy!! ps it is a yellow end

As a past buyer I can't answer your question directly, but can tell you that I bout the converter so I could use some of the power suppliers from my earlier Thinkpads on my new one, and it works perfectly. It allows me to use one of the many "chargers" from my only computers on my newer Thinkpad. In fact, that is why I bought 2. I didn't want to be traveling again and not have the right charger/adapter.

I don't think so. But you may want to check the Voltage/Amps your laptop needs and compare it to the one this charger supplies. On the other hand I don't know how you are planning to plug your laptop to a USB.

I bought this as a replacement for an HP Laptop it worked great. To be sure though if you google search " is (type of charger) compatible with ( type of computer )" you should be able to get a more specific answer. I am sorry I could not be more help

I tried it on an Aspire laptop. It did not work, but crashed my computer. The tech support could not help me. so I sent it back. Get a 3.0 USB card for your computer if you can.

Others have noted the part number for the charger.HOWEVER the information about the USB cable is wrong. This device uses a PROPRIETARY USB cable. You can't buy it anywhere. Do not buy one of these without the USB cable as it will be useless. You need the PROPRIETARY USB cable to connect it to your laptop.Here's is the manufacturer's page for this item. http://www.asus.com/Storage_Optical_Drives/Varidrive/overview/Look at the picture of connectors near the bottom of the page. The connector second from the left is the USB 3.0 INPUT connector that connects to your laptop. Notice is is PROPRIETARY and will not work with a standard USB cable.

Mine came with a car charger. You might consider a Power all charger. They sell it here at amazon. Starts your car, charges Laptops, cell phones etc. Better option.

Unless you have special equipment I would say NO. The charge is released by 2 USB ports not from a wall outlet so for a standard laptop that charges by wall outlet you can't plug it in. You would need to convert from DC to AC current and then adapt the plug type from 3 prong to USB. Also the amperage of the charge produced from the larger USB outlet on this device is 5 amps. That is a very slow charge in laptop terms. It would at best slow down your drain rate while the laptop is turned.

yes, most OEM's today use standard electronic for recharging from portable batteries, car, computer as long as the port has a power source. The cable provided will connect to any standard USB 2 or 3 port in your car using a standard convertible cigaret lighter port or any of the previous mentioned power sources. I had to fashion a sock for the neck so it didn't stick other than that a good buy.

There should be a connector for your laptop. Else you may try the specific connector separately. The j or k connector sent with the charger should work.

Yes, you can do that with the USB cable if your Laptop is on (or you have a Laptop with power on the USB connector as newer Laptop have). Otherwise you may by a cheap 12V car charger with USB outlet and connect the USB cable with the charger and the Tom Tom. I also use the charger with USB cable of my SAMSUNG cell phone to charge the TOM TOM.

I have not tried charging a laptop. I do not have an adapter that will work. I only have a usb and micro usb adapter. It did however charge my Samsung Galaxy 8 inch tablet. I was very pleased.

Hello. This charger is meant for charging Cellphones, iPods and similar devices. While it may give you a partial charge for a Laptop, it is not optimal for this purpose. Thank you
