I know this isn't on topic yet, it's not old enough, but I thought I'd
check here just in case.
I recently ran across a really cute little laptop. It's a Digital
Hinote Ultra II model P8X. Unfortunately, I don't have the power
adapter for it. It uses a small, three pin connector. The bottom of the
laptop says that it takes 11V 2.7A, but it doesn't list the pinout of
that connector... Googleing didn't turn up anything helpful. So, I
figured I'd check here, and if all else fails, I could always take it
apart and see what that connector goes to, but I don't want to mess
with taking it apart if I can help it. Laptops are always a pain to
take apart and put back together... Also, has anyone had experience
rebuilding the battery packs in these? Mine is no doubt dead, and I
would imagine it would take standard battery cells inside. Once I get
this to power up and verify that the battery is dead, I plan on
rebuilding it with new cells.

Thanks!
