it signifies that it can safely provide power to laptops with  
voltages within this range. Once the correct tip has been  
selected, the laptop and tip combination will output the  
appropriate voltage for your laptop. Please refer to the  
included Tip Compatibility Guide or online Tip Wizard at

ventilated area in order to prevent over-heating.

laptop?  
The AC input cord is 6 feet.
