Hello,

My daughter has a Archos Arnova 10d G3. Unfortunally the plug at the charger cable got broken.

Does anyone know where to get a replacement or is it similiar to the 10b chargers or Archos Arnova 10 G2 ?

Any help would be appreciated !

Thanks !

Marcus

find a similar one on amazon for example, you need the same voltage and amperage.

Thanks for your reply...... Unfortunally Amazon is still not in my country (Netherlands)

Most replacement chargers do list devices like Compatible with the Archos 7, 70, 101, and the Arnova 10 G1, 7 G2, 10, 10b G2, 10b G3

But none of them says something about the 10d

Are those similiar and do they fit or does the 10d a different plug ?

I quickly checked on Google and couldn't find the charger specifications or a clear view of the socket.

Hopefully an Arnova 10d G3 owner could post a picture of his charger on our forum, so we could compare it with other Arnova models we know and give you some directions on what to buy.

Cheers.

I don't have your model (mine's the 7g3), if it's like mine it has a 'micro-usb' plug. So any usb port will charge it fine. For example a regular usb male plugged into a computer (or standard usb adaptor) to male micro-usb will work.
(Note: "Micro-USB" is not the same as "Mini-USB". The 'mini' has a wider opening, 'micro' is more of a flattened usb.)

So any standard micro-usb should charge it fine. (Also, avoid excessive wiggling of the plug when connected as this can break the tablets usb port at the soldered points).

I use an older phone charger, different company, that has the same micro-usb plug, with no problems. Also use a powered 7port USB hub from http://www.plugable.com to charge my devices with no problems. Only Apple devices won't fully charge, as they use a higher voltage/amperage.lp

Unfortunally the 10d does not have a mini or micro usb plug to charge the device.

You need a 5 volt, 2 amp charger for it. Just need to learn the exact size, take the tablet to an electronics supply store to make sure it works before you buy one.

Here's a link to a car charger for the 10dg3 with specs, you could buy a electric to 12 volt converter
