Xbox 360 Laptop Power

Post by xboxlegend »

I was wondering if i could use this as the monitor and xbox power cable. i will connect the xbox power supply to the inner portion of the cable so only one needs to be plugged in. the part that has the connector will be screwed into the back of the xbox laptop case. Any ideas? Thanks

it wont let me upload pics so ill describe it. its the normal cable that goes in the back of a pc and the connector that it plugs into

if by normal cable you mean VGA then, yes you can use it.
DVI also works

You uh, don't want to be messing around with that unless you really know your soldering and wireing.

BE EXTREMELY CAREFUL.

110/240 VAC is something to be taken seriously.
