    Hi all.
    I'm after an extension cable for my laptop power supply.
    It's an Acer Aspire.
    What I want is a cable with a female socket that I can plug the jack of my laptop cable into then plug the extension into my laptop.
    This way I can keep the high voltage part of the supply indoors if I want to use my laptop outside.
    If you understand what I'm on about then well done :)

    Thanks.

    I've never seen such a thing - it might be easiest to make one up ?

    Hi DB.
    I would imagine they do one (it's only like a headphone extension, just different m/f plugs). I just don't know what to put in my search.
    Godamn!!

    is this the sort of thing you are after ?

    (if this might be the one check carefully the dimensions of the plug/socket to verify that they will fit, or you may consider it cheap enough to warrant a punt. You may like also to bear in mind quality/safety considerations.)

    That may be the one DQ.
    Problem is it's from Hong Kong!
    I'll see if I can find a uk based one.
    Thanks for your help so far.
