So this is a coaxial adapter plug? Very likely the tip (center) is positive and the outside (shield) is negative. Generally that's a safety convention which a laptop manufacturer is more likely to follow, although obviously you're on your own to find out. Hopefully, the laptop maker was bright enough to also include a couple diodes to protect against reverse polarity, but no guarantees. |
