What's the power brick situation with newer HP? I always seem to see refurbs that are missing the brick on eBay or FB. In fact I'm sure I use the same brick between a old hp laptop and my hp mini.

High wattage 19.5V 7.4mm are usually harder to find. Most common are 65W chargers.

HP uses two different voltages for the 7.4mm black tipped chargers: 19V and 19.5V. Not sure if both will work with the latest gen mini PCs but 19V chargers will work for these. I've had a hard time looking for 120W 19.5W chargers that 705 G1 minis used that I had to resorted to using 19V ones.

Their laptops use the smaller 4.5mm blue tipped chargers. Makes sense since these laptops are too thin.
