Clevo P775TM1-G (Octane VI) DC Jack

[Buddy1913]

Greetings everyone and i do appologise in advance for asking what may be an extremely dumb question. however here goes:
does anyone know the name/type of DC Jack (laptop side) used on the Octane VI (Clevo P775TM1-G).

over the years i've been a bit careless with the power cable coming loose when moving the laptop about to clean the desk under it and as such one of the pins is a bit burned up due to high-resistance cause by poor connection so i thought it would probably be a good idea to replace it, while it's still making a decent connection at present i just think it's prudent to have a spare on hand to make the repair by a local tech go that much smoother.

the jack in question contains 4 pins and the connection around the outside of the jack

I don't know specifically unfortunately, was a manual/similar not supplied for the laptop it might be detailed in there?

If it were me, I'd probably first ask PCS to see if they can supply a replacement power adapter or advise on the part number of the specific adapter/cable needed.

You can search and find it but I'm not ever certain (nor confident in my google-fu skills) enough to advise this is the best way to go.

I would strongly agree with @steaky360 and ask PCS firstly about a replacement, they can sometimes now do PCB components resoldering

I'd at least get a quote from them in the first instance.

the manual unfortunately does not spesify what type the DC-IN jack is, i do have a replacement power brick already and am testing that out. though it still doesn't fix the blackened pins on the laptop side.
i have found the service manual and despite having some very useful diagrams and electrical schematics it does not say what the form factor of the DC-IN jack is.

i have sent an email to PCS tech support asking if there's a chargable board-level repair facility available for this kind of issue.
