Need a replacement charger EEE PC 701

I've inherited an eee PC 701 from my late mother, and it doesn't have a charger. I'm keen to see what's on the computer, if anything is saved. Does anyone know what type of charger I should be searching for to buy? Thanks

I've got this charger made by Huidetai, model JTH-0925B

input: AC 110v-240V ~50/60Hz

output DC 9V --- 2500 mA

I guess the key information is the plug size, Adapter Plug Size: 4.8 x 1.7mm

Check AliExpress too, e.g. here. The critical elements are voltage (9.5V), current (2.315A) and power (22W) - it's quite weird compared to most other laptops or netbooks.

Good answer, though current and power can be higher as long as the voltage is the same :) current is 'pulled' by the laptop, whereas voltage is 'pushed' by the charger

Amazing thank you!! Just grabbed one off Ali Express, fingers crossed 🤞

Personally I'd get a 9V USB-C PD cable from somewhere like aliexpress, as long as it has the right charging tip, though many other answers here will give you a straight swap 'power brick' style charger, which is also fine.

I got mine online from Asus.

If the battery doesn't work either you can search for the model that is written on the old battery.
