Aug 10, 2008 5:41 PM in response to MAC32by Grant Bennet-Alder,eBay has a PowerBook 180 listed, and a dozen more and parts and adapters in stores.
The tragic flaw in those powerbooks today is that when the SCSI drives go, there simply are no replacements. -

Aug 11, 2008 12:53 PM in response to MAC32by Jan Hedlund,For the PowerBook 180c, look for a Macintosh PowerBook AC Adapter with a 24 W (output) power rating. The output is DC 7.5 V/3.0 A, where the centre hole is positive [+] and the outer ring is negative [-].

Aug 16, 2008 8:56 PM in response to MAC32by Niteshooter,Hi, I'm not sure that a retail store will still carry an adaptor this old unless it's a generic one.
I just checked mine, as Jan says it is 7.5V DC at 3.0A don't get the older version which was for older PowerBooks as it was only 2.0A. The part number on my 3.0A is M5652.
This fellow on eBay seems to have lots.
