My laptop power cord died does best buy have them for sale? I’m wanting to level up my legendary cloak and play around in ungoro a bit.
not sure, but i know that Batteries Plus has a selection of laptop AC adapters.
Best bet is something like Amazon or Mono price probably for a replacement
What is Mono price? Ill have to check to see if theres a batteries plus where I live.
it’s online place that sells cables and stuff.
bestbuy looks like they sell power cables/chargers for laptops, make sure its in spec with the model of your laptop.

I hope it’s like five dollars
What model laptop are you running? Can generally find these on eBay, but expect to spend around $50~ USD with the power brick included.

I’m assuming that you’re looking for a replacement power block/transformer (which is essentially what those laptop power blocks are–a mini-transformer that converts AC power to DC).
If so, there are many websites that sell replacement transformers, however, the critical part is to make sure your replacement block’s input/output specs are the same (or as close as can be managed). Input is usually not a big issue since it’s largely based on your region. In the US, it’s going to be around the 100 to 120V input.
The output is what is important. If you have your old block, there should be some very fine print on it indicating the output voltage and amperage. You want to find a block whose output matches that.
For example, my laptop’s power block output is 15V/4A (which gives it a 60W output). So any power block that puts out 15V at 4A of power would work.
Head over to Amazon and search for Laptop Power Adapter, you’ll find a bunch of hits. Many of them can handle a range of voltage/amperage outputs (along with various different plugs if your laptop doesn’t use a standard USB-C plug).
(NOTE: If you know the exact make/model of your laptop, you can search for a power adapter for that make/model and unless it’s a very esoteric machine, there should be some compatible adapters available).

Op Wait, steps to do:
- Locate specific laptop model and serial number, usually find underneath or within the case, make sure you know what the specific year of manufacture is and release (due to revisions).
- Locate the specific part number for the laptop’s power supply/cable/part(usually on the manufacture website for your specific laptop model/serial number type). This will be immensely important because not only will this be what you need to find later on, BUT you can find ones similar to this that may work just fine as a substitute if you cannot find the original specified one.
- Locate vendor part as cheaply as you can find it, using websites such as newegg, ebay (only trusted sellers), maybe amazon (meh), or whatever trustworthy source you like.
