I've been using the laptop and charger for over one month now..after draining the power in my PC this morning I left it.. i decided to charge it this evening.. i plugged it after sometime i started hearing sparkling/buzzing noise from that box (transformer) of the charger ... very audible noise and its so hot... even hotter than before ! the light is not very full, its NEPA and this noise starts when i plug it to my system. please friends what should i do |

Clearly electrical contact issues, resulting in more heat than necessary. That is, the charger is doing more work with the fraction of electricity it's getting. Did it drop on the ground at any time? Smashed? Does any part of it look cracked or dented? If not, you may need to open it up before it goes completely kaputt. In case you are wondering, elect/elect was my major. 1 Like |

pikapizy: Better stop wondering and buy another charger. Not unless you are ready to buy a replacement laptop!!! |

Lexusgs430:lol bro i don't understand,you want me to buy another charger? |

pikapizy: That constant sparking to your laptop, is not doing the laptop any good. Keep enjoying the fireworks display or buy a new charger. Unless you have saved up for a new laptop, then no point changing the charger pack. If I want to buy you a new charger? YES NB :Would buy it for you in 2015!!! |
