[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 908651, member: 56379"] Thanks for the link. The 45 watt output would be correct for the Clamshell...but looking thru the list of compatible models...it doesn't list the Clamshell. I used to have an iBook G4 14" 933mhz (one of the computers in the list)...and I looked at the round connector that plugs into the Clamshell...and it appears that the Clamshell's connector is a bit larger in diameter than it was for my G4 iBook. So I'm thinking that the connector on this adapter would be on the small side for the clamshell. I'm not 100% sure, since I don't have a power adapter for a G4 iBook to compare...but I'm probably 90-95% sure. But I do believe I have a better solution for you. Look for a power adapter for a: - Powerbook 1400 - Powerbook G3 "WallStreet" - Powerbook G3 "Pismo" These use 45watt power adapters & they seem to have the correct plug size for the Clamshell. I do have the power adapters for both the Powerbook 1400 & Powerbook G3...and the connector is the same for the Clamshell. By the way...here's a link to an e-Bay auction for a "Yo-Yo" adapter (they do ship worldwide): [url=http://cgi.ebay.com/PowerBook-G3-1400-iBook-Yo-Yo-YoYo-AC-Power-Adapter_W0QQitemZ160362335198QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item2556570bde&_trksid=p4999.c0.m14#ht_556wt_1121]PowerBook G3/1400 iBook ~ Yo-Yo (YoYo) AC Power Adapter - eBay (item 160362335198 end time Sep-20-09 07:17:33 PDT)[/url] International shipping is $15.00, plus if you get the "Yo-Yo" adapter for around $10-$15...that might be a better price then the one you were looking at. Hope this helps, - Nick [/QUOTE]
