Introduction to the FSP NB L90 Notebook Adapter
Universal power adapters are a godsend for many of us. Reason being is that many of us use our laptops in many different locations throughout the house. In my case I take my laptop from the living room, to the home office, to the bedroom. In two of the those three locations the wall outlet is located behind some heavy furniture, so having multiple power adapters that can be static fixtures really comes in handy.
If you travel a lot having one always in your notebook travel bag can be of great benefit as doing this will eliminate you forgetting to take your original one along. I remember this happening to me last year when traveling to Las Vegas for CES. To combat that dilemma FSP Group (Fortron/Source) have produced the NB L90 laptop power adapter. The L90 is capable of producing a whooping 90 watts of power, or 4.74A at 19 volts (+/-1V), which is enough to power most laptops up to about 17”. We will be testing this new adapter on my Sony notebook to see if it is worthy of your hard earned dollar.
