Laptop Plus delivers trustworthy laptop adapters and accessories
There’s no denying that laptops have become an indispensable part of our lives. Whether it's for work, entertainment, or education, we rely heavily on these portable powerhouses. However, one often overlooked aspect of laptops is the power adapter. The quality of your laptop adapter can significantly impact the overall performance and safety of your device. At Laptop Plus, we understand the importance of quality when it comes to laptop adapters and accessories, and we're committed to providing you with high quality, safe and reliable products.
Ensuring safety and quality
Not all laptop adapters are made properly, especially when it comes to Australian standards. In Australia, any product sold to be plugged into a power outlet, must adhere to strict manufacturer requirements regarding the Printed Circuit Board (PCB) and components used. These products are then subjected to rigorous testing to ensure they meet Australian safety standards. Once a product passes these tests, it receives an approval number, often starting with "NSW," indicating it has been approved by the regulatory authorities in NSW. Manufacturers are required to display the approval number or the Australian electrical safety logo as a mark of quality and compliance.
Identifying quality vs. fake adapters
Unfortunately, the market is flooded with counterfeit laptop adapters that claim to be genuine. To help you avoid falling into this trap, here are some telltale signs of fake adapters:
- Non-Australian origins: If the company selling the adapter is not located in Australia and promises lightning-fast delivery within 3-5 days, be cautious. These companies can sell you anything and not be accountable for the quality of their products. Quality products are more likely to be stocked locally.
- Multiple plug types: Fake adapters often display images of multiple plug types, such as American and European plugs. This is a common tactic used to appeal to a wider audience, but it may indicate a lack of compliance with Australian standards.
- Unverified original claims: Some sellers may claim their products are original or OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer), but they are 1/3 of the original price and look slightly different to the original product. Genuine products typically come with clear branding and manufacturer details.
- Long warranty with a catch: Be wary of sellers offering unusually long warranties, such as 2 or 3 years. You will find that it is hard to contact the seller, and they request you to return the product to China for replacements or refunds, it's a red flag. Genuine Australian-approved products usually come with local support.
