2pin charger is it?
welcome to modern switching psu design.
the mains input is connected to the 0v lead to the laptop via a ceramic cap!!!
i'v said in a lot of threads that these fucking supply's should have a ground-pin on them!
if you think that's bad, i was almost thrown off a ladder by this bs design,
i was working on a tv antenna and the coax was live from a tv with a switching psu and 2pin power cable.

Kind of a different question...
I'll try to describe this as best as I can ... but ...
My laptop is a MacBook Pro and therefore, the casing is made of metal ... aluminum I believe ... but when it's plugged into the charger and I rub my fingers ... or glide them ... across the metal by the trackpad, I feel like ... an electrical vibration? I don't know what to call it other than that, but when it's just running on the battery and not plugged into the charger, it doesn't do it.
Anyone know what that is or how I can make it stop? I want to say it's a bad ground maybe?
Thoughts?

The charging indicator light on my ASUS X54H laptop is always on even when the charger is disconnected.
Windows also shows ''Plugged in'' when charger is not connected.
This problem started year ago gradually, when unplugging the charger the charging light took several seconds to disappear, then minutes, and now almost always on even when unplugged for an entire day.
Strangely, before sometimes immediately when plugging in the charger the charging light went away, and later came back with it connected.
If I let battery run out and say it has 3% Windows will... -
Laptop Question
Hello,
I'm working on a Lenovo T460 that has been having trouble charging as of late. Its worked well since I've owned it for a few years. When I went to use it the other day it was dead and wouldn't turn on (was sitting on an Anker 65W GaN charger). After some fiddling with the charger I got it to turn on and start charging, but seemed like the charger was not working as it should (took a few plug and unplug cycles to get it to start charging).
A day later it was dead again and wouldn't boot/charge no matter what I did. No lights or anything when... -
The ISL88739 & ISL88739AHRZ are a highly versatile combo battery charger
configurable for operating as either a Hybrid Power Boost (HPB)
charger or a Narrow VDC (NVDC) charger, supporting 2-, 3-, or
4-cell batteries. Both configurations allow the battery to work with
the adapter together to supply the system load when it exceeds
the adapter capability, referred to as system Turbo mode. HPB
charger configuration reverse-boosts battery energy to the system
bus to help the adapter provide the system power in Turbo mode.
NVDC charger configuration...11-05-2024, 03:28 PM -
Hi, I have a Dell Inspiron 7567 LA-D993P that I've just got running.
There was corrosion around PU1503 which shorted PC1518 & blew PL1504. (Reference pictures attached)
I've replaced PC1518 & PL1504 & the laptop is now running however I now have another issue.
Here are the tested scenarios:
1. With the laptop running on battery, I plug in the 150W charger & the charger shuts off (no LED, protection mode) but the laptop remains running on battery.
2. With the laptop off, plug in charger (LED says on) & the front charging... -
ISL6257HRZ ISL6257HRZ-T Laptop Battery Charger Datasheet
Highly Integrated Narrow VDC Battery Charger for Notebook Computers
The ISL6257HRZ ISL6257HRZ-T is a highly integrated battery charger controller
for Li-Ion/Li-Ion polymer batteries. ISL6257 is designed for
Narrow VDC applications where the system power source is
either the battery pack or the regulated output of the charger.
This makes the max voltage to the system equal to the max
battery voltage instead of the max adapter voltage. Operating
at lower system voltage can improve...11-05-2024, 04:43 PM
