How do I connect the tip to the adapter cable?

Once you have selected the correct tip for your laptop,

connect the tip to the output cable, making sure that the

ridge on the inside of the tip aligns properly with the groove

in the output cable connector. Additionally, the pins on the

inside of the tip should be in line with the holes in the output

cable. The tip should be pushed firmly onto the cable until

the tip and cable meet and there is no gap.

What other laptops can I use this adapter for?

The Rocketfish Universal Power Adapter is compatible with

thousands of laptop models. A complete list of compatible

laptops can be viewed through the Tip Wizard at

www.RocketfishProducts.com.

Why doesn't the tip fit into my laptop?

If the tip does not appear to fit into your laptop you may

have selected the incorrect tip for your device. The tip should

fit snugly inside the DC input jack on the side or back of your

laptop. If the tip will not fit into the jack do not force the tip.

Confirm you have selected the correct tip for your laptop by

referencing the included Tip Compatibility Guide or visiting

the Tip Wizard at www.RocketfishProducts.com. If you need

additional assistance please contact Rocketfish customer

service at (800) 620-2790.

Will using an incorrect tip damage my laptop?

The tips are designed to be used with specific laptops and so

you should only use the tip that is designated specifically for

your laptop. The correct tip can be identified by using the

online Tip Wizard at www.RocketfishProducts.com or by

locating your specific laptop in the included Tip

Compatibility Guide.

The use of an incorrect tip may cause performance issues,

including the inability to charge the internal battery or

power the laptop, or the display of an error message on the

laptop screen. It is also possible that the use of an incorrect

tip could damage your laptop. For these reasons, it is

necessary to use the tip designed specifically for your device.

The label on my Rocketfish adapter says DC

OUTPUT: 15-20V but my laptop is only 19V.

Will the adapter damage my laptop?

The 15-20V rating refers to the capability of the adapter and

it signifies that it can safely provide power to laptops with

voltages within this range. Once the correct tip has been

selected, the laptop and tip combination will output the

appropriate voltage for your laptop. Please refer to the

included Tip Compatibility Guide or online Tip Wizard at

www.RocketfishProducts.com to find the correct tip for your

laptop.

I notice that the adapter is warm when I use it.

Is this a problem?

During standard operation the adapter body may feel warm,

and this is normal. The adapter should always be placed in a

ventilated area in order to prevent over-heating.

How long is the cord from the wall to the

laptop?

The AC input cord is 6 feet.

If I leave the adapter plugged in when I'm not

using it does it waste energy?

This Rocketfish adapter meets EnergyStar and CEC IV energy

requirements which means it is an energy-efficient product

designed to conserve power. When the adapter is plugged in

and not being used it draws less than 0.5W of power.
