I solved the electric shock problem...!!!

[megamoz]

By simply calling Sony Service, explaining the situation, suggesting/asking for grounded adaptor. Sony openly accepted the problem and confirmed the grounded adaptor is the solution.

Anyway just today I received it. It is VGP-AC19V12 three-prong adaptor. And yes the electrical leakage is gone for good. It was all-over the computer, even on the screen. Finally the testlight is off.

Ahora estoy feliz!!!

It is SZ-360P/C.

I just ordered a Targus adapter for $30 hoping it will solve the problem. I haven't received it yet. If it doesn't work, getting one from Sony would be nice.

Unless the Targus is the 120W version, you'll hurt your SZ.

I've never had a tingling issue with my SZ. No 3 prong needed here.

Sounds great I will have to try this cuz I have the problems on my sz360.

BTW how much battery life are you getting out of the 360? Stamina/Speed?

[Teppi]

Can you recap the conversion you had with Sony? Did they charge you for the new adapter?

I bought the 90W version, why would it hurt the SZ? And I also feel the buzz on the palmrest. I should give sony a ring.

So just call and tell Sony Support we have a problem and they will send you a brand new AC Adapter?

Sounds too simple to be true...

Because the SZ needs it. Look at your Sony power adapter. Do a search here. There have been multple threads on it. Undervolting is not a good thng.
