Hi
My Dell 7500 uses 20 volts. But Radio Shack made a universal adapter that
converts 12 to 14upto22orso by click stop. I think they may have quit
making them though. I use one for the Dell and one for the LX200 for 18
volts. They work great. They were 70$. Take a look, they might have a
replacement or still have some.
