Hi.

I have the i adaptor2 mini AC adaptor for the previous 15"Ti powerbook.

http://www.century.co.jp/e_products/iadaptor2.html
http://www.century.co.jp/e_prod_main.html

Now that my new 15" aluminum has arrived (w/ superdrive and swapped in the 60GB 7200rpm 8MB cache Hitachi/IBM drive, 1gig ram), does anyone know if this adaptor (or Madsonline's mini-one for that matter http://www.madsonline.com/index.html...html~mainFrame ) are safe to use in the new Aluminums?

Specs are:
APPLE supplied adaptor:
100-240V 50-60 Hz
127-182VA Output: 24.5V 2.65A

i adaptor 2:
100-240V 50-60 Hz
100VA Output: 24V 1.9A

As you see, the i adaptor2's VA, and Output values are less than Apple's adaptor. Would this hurt anything or just make it take longer to charge the battery?

Appreciate any thoughts.
