External battery charger

Hi the spot where the power cord on my laptop plugs in was damaged, is there a external battery charger for the Studio 1535?

Thanks for any help,

L

No, there is no such device available for your system - you will need to have the mainboard replaced.

About $350-400 for a board; another  $75-100 for labor to install it.

Yes, external chargers are avail. Search for the best price.

Does the laptop still work using the a/c adapter? If it doesn't, the replacement of the system board will give you the most usability. Are you still under warranty?

The power socket can be replaced. Search on the procedure. A service shop could do a replacement cheaper than a system board, but this is a difficult repair because of the complexibility of the system board.
