Aspire A315-56 Query Reg: Power Adapter (PA 1450-26A) how can I find out the plug size
Hi. I have an Aspire A315-56, SNID XXXXXXXXXX, and am in need of a new power adapter.
Acer themselves don't seem to have any available and on searching the net for one using the identifiers on my current one (PA 1450-26A, etc.) I can find many but with a variety of plug sizes.
I've dug around the Acer site looking for specs, but I can't find one that mentions the AC adapter's plug size.
So, how can I find out the plug size I should be looking for? (Eyeballing the current one with a ruler doesn't seem like a reliable idea, especially for the inner dimension!)
Thanks!

Hi, the correct plug size is 5.5mm x 1.7mm: Acer Aspire 3 A315-56-330Y charger / Acer Aspire 3 A315-56-330Y ac adapter / Acer Aspire 3 A315-56-330Y power cable or Acer Aspire 3 A315-56 - Genuine OEM Laptop Charger | AC Adapter

Many thanks! That's great. 😉 Mine is a 45W adapter and with a black centred plug so the first one looks like the one (although mine is a Liteon not an Acer, but the rest of the specs are the same).
Not that I doubt you in the slightest, but can I ask where you got the information from, please? I ask 'cos I spent absolutely yonks searching around, including sticking my SNID and SN into the Acer site, in the hope of finding the detailed specs for my laptop but I couldn't find anything.
Also where the -330Y came from? Neither the Acer Care app on the laptop nor the Acer site on sticking in the SNID or SN into it include that suffix … and the label on the bottom (what's left of it!) has "A3/5-56-688K", on which I also drew a blank on searching for! :-(
Again, thanks!

These are just links I found on the internet, the second link is an endorsed Acer charger. If this concludes your question, please mark "Yes Answered" 😉
