Question MSI stealth laptop charger

[robot65]

I have an MSI Stealth 15M laptop (bought in 2021) and the charger has stopped working. The charger it came with has output 150w/7.5a/20v. I cant seem to find a replacement charger anywhere and MSI has told me they don't have it in stock and I would have to wait 5-7 weeks. Can I use a charger with output 19v instead? If anyone can suggest a replacement charger for me I would appreciate it. The laptop supports USB-C port charging but I can't find a charger like that with 150w.

Something like this Dell power supply will work. It may charge slower than the original power supply, but will get the job done.

I would think that many USB-C docking stations could also be used to charge the system, but that is a less-mobile friendly solution.

Sorry I should have specified that I am in Spain & I bought the laptop in Spain as well.

But this could work even with its 130w?

Yes, it will work. Dell in the EU should also have the same model available.

It will charge slower and you may get a warning about a lower powered power supply being attached, but the system will charge and allow you to use the laptop.
