Power cords can be purchased at the Duchesne Bookstore or on-line at the manufacturer's website. Power cords are not loaned from the CAVE. Power cords are not interchangable!! Each model requires different amps. We have told the girls to be careful NOT to share their a/c adapters and batteries. Also, be wary about purchasing "generic" power adapters. They are not recommended as they have caused system damage to a few of our girls computers in the past.
Power accessories can be purchased directly at:
HP: http://h30143.www3.hp.com/configure2.cfm?sid=16346#m_31
IBM: http://www.pc.ibm.com/us/accessories/battery.html
Toshiba: http://www.toshibadirect.com/td/b2c/acat.to?seg=HHO&coid=-26420&rcid=-26364&ccid=1291043
Batteries can be purchased either from one of the links above or individually at the CAVE by request. A quote will be sent home to be signed and returned with a check. The battery or power cord can be ordered and typically receievd the next school day. Batteries are too costly to keep in stock, so they are ordered on an "as need" basis only.
Extra power accessories can be ordered with the school's bulk order in May, tax-free.
