		<description>Be careful.
The Wattage can always be higher than the stated minimum for your laptop.
The Voltage has to be the same.

If your laptop needs a 65 Watt 19.5 Volt  charger then you can use a 90 Watt 19.5 Volt charger

Voltage has to be the same and wattage has to be the minimum or higher.

If you have a Dell laptop, you should buy a replacement from Dell - or make sure it has the Dell ID chip in the charger 
Or it will not charge your battery.</description>

		<description>Your best bet is to call your current mortgage company and try with them.  If they say no---then wait a week and call again. I would even do it a third time if needed.

I have found that maybe I say things in an odd way, The second time I called I got a different person and maybe I was more polished in my request.</description>

		<description>Andy- it was about US$2100 for everything. Fortunately I found a seller (Adorama) that was offering free shipping, plus Celestron has been offering $300 off the CGEM models lately.</description>

		<description>&lt;/div&gt;

After using this high quality diagonal, I realize the 1.25&quot; star diagonal included with my Celestron C11 does not do the telescope&#039;s optics justice.  &#13;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;I did not know this, and for some months after I bought my C11 SCT last year, I kept experimenting with different 1.25&quot; eyepieces and filters, as I was unwilling to make the jump to a 2&quot; diagonal and eyepieces. &#13;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Unfortunately, I kept coming up dissapointed on images, not seeing the brightness and clarity that I expected from such an expensive (and highly rated) telescope.&#13;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;I purchased this 2&quot; Diagonal mirror last weekend.  Celestron includes a small locking aluminum case.  This is a nice touch, and I feel it hints at the quality of the diagonal. At the least it is impressive for the new  buyer, albeit maybe a little pretentious.&#13;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;I used this from my backyard for my first views. Even with the extreme light pollution from nearby Phoenix (you can&#039;t see all of the Big Dipper with the naked eye many nights -- it&#039;s that bad!) I was seeing objects that I had never see even in deep space dark sky viewing sites before.  I was surprised when I unexpectedly resolved the double star in Polaris.  I admit to mixed feelings about this, as I wondered how much more I had been missing with the stock 1.25&quot; diagonal.&#13;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Earlier attempts to see M31 from my backyard resulted in blurred and indistinct images, but with a F 6/6 focal reducer and this 2&quot; diagonal it was bright and well defined.&#13;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Speaking of the focal reducer: I was concerned after I bought this diagonal that I would be unable to use the reducer, but the reducer screwed on the optical back threads as usual, and the diagonal screwed onto the reducer easily.  I did find that I almost reached the end of the C11&#039;s focus adjustment when I added a CCD camera onto this setup.  However, I was still able to get a sharp focus with several turns left on the focusing knob.&#13;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;I used this combination with an Oxygen III filter and viewed M42.  Again, previous attempts from my backyard resulted in a partial view of M42, with the outer edges fading rapidly.  However, the addition of this 2&quot; diagonal (and a 10mm televue eyepiece) resulted in a full eyepiece image of M42, with the entire nebula clearly and brightly obvious across the field of view. &#13;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;I did not expect this dramatic of an improvement in the views, and feel I got more than I expected from this modest addition.&#13;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;I considered a high end diagonal claiming 99% reflectivity instead of the 96% reflectivity of this diagonal.  The more than doubled expense might be worth it, but I did not think so at the time I bought this diagonal.  I didn&#039;t think I&#039;d get this much more out of adding this diagonal, and I can&#039;t comment on what an additional 3% of reflectivity might add. &#13;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;I have not compared this to other 2&quot; diagonals, but the incredible increase in quality compared to the stock 1.25&quot; diagonal is so spectacular that I feel as if I have a new (and far superior) telescope.  &#13;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;You can continue to use your old 1.25&quot; eyepieces, as there is an adapter included.  Now that I&#039;ve seen the improvement in upgrading to a 2&quot; diagonal, I&#039;m planning on upgrading to 2&quot; eyepieces as well.  Anyone want to buy a few hundred bucks worth of 1.25&quot; eyepieces?&#13;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;I highly recommend this diagonal. If you&#039;re using a 1.25 viewing system, consider upgrading to the 2&quot; diagonal and eyepieces before adding more aperture with a larger telescope.
