You need another laptop power cord. Having just one, even having two is not going to cut it. Think about all of the advantages of having several power cords.
For one, having spare cords will add to the life of each power supply. If you have 3 cords, each cord will only suffer one third of the damage and stress than if you had one! It’s considerably less than that when you consider the fact that most of the damage that happens to your power supply happens when you are continually unplugging and winding up your cord. The most common electric problem has to do with kinked or frayed wires!
I have three laptop power cords. One for my house. One in my car, and one at work. When it comes time for me to go to work in the morning, I simply unplug my laptop, put it in its case and off I go. Quick and easy! Same thing at work, and when I decide to go to the coffee shop, I reach under my passenger car seat and I am ready to go!
I am NEVER without a power supply for my laptop, and I NEVER spend time looking for my cord.
A friend of mine introduced me to this practice about 5 years ago, and I have never looked back. One of the best investments I ever made! In fact, I took it one step further and instead of buying the stock power supplies that came with my laptop, I bought a universal laptop power supply to use as both of my replacements. Now, even when I upgrade my computer, I am still with my extra’s.
