Need specs for IBM PC Convertible power supply

[tom ponsford]

Yes My convertible has the power supply(AC adapter) The DC output is 15V 
at 2.7 Amps. The I'm not sure of the size of the power connector but 
it's the common black tipped barrel variety

I also have an unopened IBM battery which I think is for the same 
machine (It came in the same IBM case)
#6820790 bar code on the box. I've never opened the convertible case to 
see it's the same battery!
On the Battery itself it says P/N2684331

The  good news if that is indeed a battery for the machine is that its 
rated at 9.6V at 1.8 Amp/Hr and it appears it connects by a simple 2 
wires to the computer. I think the battery may be too small to actually 
power the laptop (although its big) but rather to keep a power state to 
the computer. I think it actually stores basic in a static ram. I think 
if you look through a lot of HP printer adapters, you may find one that 
close.

Cheers

Tom
