Power cord needed for an HP ENVY 23-c050 All-in-One Desktop PC.

[Photogrammy]

I could not find a board that addresses my issue, so I hope someone can place my question in the correct spot for some help. During our recent move to a new state, the power cord to my HP Envy was packed away. Unfortunately, it is in storage and I won’t be able to retrieve it for another six months. I’ve tried everything I can to find a power cord that will work with it, but have had no luck doing so. 

Does anyone have a power cord that will work with my PC? I would love to buy it from you!!!!

Hi:

Below is the link to the parts list for your PC.

HP PartSurfer

The power adapter part number and description is:

681059-001

Power Supply - EPS 2.0, 180W, 19.5V/89% eff

The power cord part number and description that goes from the wall socket to the adapter is:

491683-001

Power cord (Black) - 3-wire conductor, 1.83m (6ft) long (United States)

What I recommend you do is to go on eBay and do a search by the HP power cord part number and find a used but tested and working genuine HP power adapter.  Those usually come with the power cord too.

Thank you, HP PartSurfer for you help! I went to the HP site to look for a power cord and power supply, and all I could find were replacement part numbers that were no longer available. I had looked at the adapter charger you suggested on Ebay, but I wasn’t sure if that would work, but I’m willing to try it if you think it could work to replace the original power cord and adapter that came with my PC.

I have learned a very important lesson in all of this. Never ever separate a computer and its power supply cords! And…..replace my computers before they become obsolete! I’ll order the OEM adapter charger today and keep my fingers crossed that it will get me into my very old PC. Would you like me to let you know if it works?

You're very welcome.

Looking at the eBay list of adapters I posted that reference the HP part number, and sorting by the lowest price to the highest, these appear to be a genuine HP power adapters and come with the power cord as well.

The second one indicates 'cleaned and tested' but it costs a bit more.
