If your laptop charger dies 15:17 - Nov 30 with 1867 views | BklynRanger | is it more likely to be the detachable bit that you plug into the wall, or the bit with the big rectangle that you plug into the computer? The blue light on the rectangle bit will not turn on if that helps - it sits there limp and lifeless, a shadow of it's former self. Thanks in advance for any and all cordial assistance. | | | | |
