Hoi Albert, goed artikel hoor. Ik heb in het verleden ook al een paar van die &-adapters gerepareerd in de afgelopen jaren.

============================================

Hello Albert, good article. I repaired also a few of these & amp-adaptors in the past years.

Keep on going!

Yes Robert, prices have gone up since we got the Euro in Europe. First we had the 'Gulden' (with an f for florein for the value, if I'm not mistaken), which was about a factor 2.34 cheaper than the Euro now. And Banks never became cheaper! But prices were much lower. And the US Dollar is close to the same value as the Euro now and it looks if foreign money is going to equalize in its values. So is the GBP which is still a little more than our money in value. Here in The Netherlands they always think of new things to make money with. They recently made the first water cleaning factory in the world that also pays itself back in time. By removing and reusing the celluloid in the sewage water. (From all toiletpaper). And with the granulate new products can be made instead of burning the celluloid as waste in the old way.

Good job, Albert. The previous guy sure didn't know what he was doing. I agree that a person should be paid a diagnosis fee, but 75 Euros is way too much.

In reply to Yogesh Panchal.

Thank you Yogesh. After such an unqualified technician had looked into the device it is quite impossible to prove he was not licensed or experienced enough to claim our money back. He even may have never opened the device but still claims he had. He still has to be paid for only taking the time to investigate. And likely thinks there was no warranty on the already defect laptop left anyhow.

Thank you Mr.Suranga. It was an easy successful repair. By-the-way: The mentioned 120 Watt Laptop adapter from Trust (which was an auto-voltage adapter) that my friend's nephew had bought was no use. It not only didn't charge the original HP battery, as was to be expected, but it also had only worked once. The next morning it refused to start-up the HP Envy 17 laptop. So better stick to the original power adapter if you encounter this problem. Cheers!

In reply to D. Wilson.

Of course it is normal that someone gets paid for his service D. Wilson. But in this case it was malpractice by a not qualified person. And he shouldn't have opened the laptop to begin with in the first place. He not only told my customer that his laptop was beyond repair but also made it worse by leaving a connector unconnected. And he wasn't able to test the laptop like he should have done like I did. I have repaired many times without having got paid on No Cure No Pay base. Mostly because the mainboard was beyond repair because of bga solder problems or defect cpu/gpu chips. And if a doctor removes the wrong leg he shouldn't be paid either. And likely you will get more money than it would have cost if he had done his job right. I hope you do agree that it was a very bad technician?
