£20.50 inc. VAT
AI-generated summary
The HP 65W Smart AC Adapter for £17.10 ex-VAT is one of those “boring but useful” buys. If you’ve got a small fleet of HP laptops or you’re replacing a lost/failed charger, this is the kind of straightforward power brick that keeps downtime low without paying the premium for a generic. In day-to-day use it’s typically fine: it charges reliably, doesn’t feel cheaply built, and the “smart” side usually means fewer hassle issues with the laptop accepting power correctly.
That said, I wouldn’t buy it if you’re using it across lots of different laptop brands/models. These adapters can be picky, and if your device isn’t supported you’ll end up burning time testing compatibility. Also, for the price you’re not getting any “extra” value—so if you already have a spare that works, this is only worth it as a backup or replacement, not as an upgrade. Best suited for IT teams, small offices, or anyone standardising on HP power supplies and wanting a dependable spare at sensible money.
Easy to use
Control the flow while maintaining optimal performance utilizing smart-pin technology, drawing only minimal power when not in use, and helping provide reliable surge protection.
Power up wherever you work
Protect your cable and improve cable manageability. The new right-angled (90°) 4.5mm connector allows access in tight spaces and takes stress off the cord by reducing bending.
World-class support
Eliminate multiple adapters - a special dongle is provided that allows simple conversion from a 4.5mm connector to the 7.4mm used on some previous HP notebooks.
