Why dc power Sockets break?
Number one reason is if you use a universal power adapter. Universal adapters are not made specifically for your dc power Socket. They sit extremely tightly on your dc power Socket pin and thus any movement up down left right usually breaks the pin off. Number two reason is faulty power plug on your AC Adapter, when a power plug goes bad it usually backfires on your dc power Socket due to constant twisting and turning of the DC plug, we replace these at no extra charge. Third reason is due to a bad dc power Socket design. Many HP, Compaq, Gateway, Acer, Toshiba and Asus models have bad Socket designs that don’t have a securing bracket that holds the Socket down to the motherboard preventing any movement sideways or up and down.
