How to properly wrap lenovo power cables

Hello lenovo community! I have a lenovo x230i tablet laptop and despite searching the manual and google I can't seem to find a good answer regarding how to properly wrap lenovo cables for proper storage and long cable life.
I know of the over-under method of winding cables, mine in particular has one long velcro strap on the power brick. Does anyone know the default way lenovo recommends wrapping the cables so that they don't get bent or damaged over time? Please let me know if you do, thanks!

The standard way is to do a back & forth bend, slightly longer than the power brick and use the velcro to wrap them against one side of the brick.
Been working fo me for years and I havent trashed a cable yet!

  • WHY IPHONE POWER CABLE IS VERY VERY VERY POOR!!!

    I bought "SEVERAL TIMES" of iphone power cable and its always not working after few months (2-3 months only). I handled my accesories with care and still POWER CABLE of iphone is very fragile which is not really good for all iphone users. How come Apple accesory like power cable is EXPENSIVE and yet their product is not durable??? In other words VERY VERY POOR QUALITY. Among all accesories of Apple product CHARGER/POWER CABLE is the most important item for us (THE CONSUMERS) will able to use Apple product.

    In just 7-8 months we have replaced at least 6 cable not charging anymore. They have either fallen apart or breaking of wire. So poor quality, we have not experienced with other similar equipment from other suppliers than the Apple. Only once did we get replaced a cable from Apple despite the fact that we delivered two this time

  • Power cable?

    I have purchased the optional cable kit for the airport express.
    I feel dumb to have to ask this question... how do you connect the POWER cable to the airport express? The instructions don't help... There actually aren't any that I can see.....
    TIA
    Pete D.

    The prongs are part of the section that will slide off to reveal another connector underneath.
    Position the Express on a desk so that the prongs are to your right and facing directly upward. The whole section including the prongs will slide to your right with a bit of pressure.

  • How long is the power cable?

    I'd like to know how far away from a power socket can I place this camera? 

    The cables on my cameras are approximately 1.3m from plugpack to plug.
    You can of course extend the length from wall to plugpack with an extension lead.

  • Anyone know the length of the power cable for the official dock for the K1?

    The power cable that came with the Ideapad K1 isn't long enough to reach my power strip behind my desk. I was wondering how long the power cable is for the dock that I see in the Lenovo store?
    Besides that, I love this tablet, nice and easy to hold, probably one of the most comfirtable tablets to hold (next to what Sony just released). I'm a little disappointed with the wifi connection and the reboots (down to maybe one today with the new launcher *sigh*). Even with the issues, I trust Lenovo more in terms of support then I do anyone else.

    Big Daddy, One other thing I forgot to mention is, If you open the case on your device, you'll instantly void any warranty that came with it. Also, bear in mind, any modifications that you make to the antenna system on this device could not only make the FCC approval that Linksys was given for the device null and void. Be very careful with anything like an antenna system on these devices, you can actually recieve RF burns if you contact any bare metal of the antenna system when it is transmitting. Just bear in mind that 2.4GHz is more less the same frequency that a microwave oven uses (although at a LOT lower power). As a radio ham, I've had the odd RF burn and I can tell you, they really hurt!.

  • Registry issue with Lenovo Power Manager with X61

    I have the following problem. 
    Hi guys,
    Lenovo power manager v1,6 quit working properly lately so I googled for a solution which involved removing power schemes which had reproduced in the registry to cause an overload to the application.
    Anyway because this wasnt really working (I ended up with having powerschemes but wasnt allowed to change them) I in my brightest moments decieded to delete the messed up part of my registry [HKEY_CURREN_USER --> Control panel --> PoweCfg] because it was preventing my reinstalations of said program from functioning properly since they resorted to the previosly present registryentrys.
    Well it appears that when installing the powermanager it does not write these new registry entrys and Im stuck now without a way to get them back. I wonder at what point that registry entry is written in the first place, does anyone feel like exporting said part of their healthy registry...please...?

    ..this one is from an x200 with Server2003...seems like you're familiar enough with registry exports and wrapping and shoiuld be able to convert this into a *.reg form:

  • T500 not starting after unplugging power cable

    Hi,
    I'm looking after a customer's T500 Thinkpad (Win XP). The machine first didn't start at all. I then figured that by removing both battery and RAM, and pressing the power button repeatedly a couple of times, and then like a minute), I could get it to start up.
    The machine was in very bad condition, I had to remove a ridiculous amount of spyware and viruses. I also went to the Productivity Center and updated the system, just everything that was updateable (including BIOS).
    The only problem I can't solve is that the computer still refuses to start once switched off AND power cable removed. If I leave it plugged in, it would boot, but once the power cord is plugged off, I have to remove battery and ROM again etc...
    The regular battery seems to work fine, I was working like an hour only on battery, and it went down to approx. 70 %, so I know the battery is not dead. 
    I also updated all drivers and software available for Category "Power Management" from the Lenovo suppor site, but still it would work.
    I opened the computer and I found a CMOS battery as shown here:
    https://itsuperstore.com.au/images/t40%20cmos.jpg Unfortunately, I don't know how to verify if this battery still has power (chances are it doesn't), and if this would have any impact on the booting process.
    Could somebody please help me out?
    www.justcorebusiness.com

    you can take off the CMOS battery, and try to boot the laptop regulary. Having a depleted CMOS doesn't cause the problem you described. The problem you describe usually is something to do with a faulty charging circuit/power management circuit on the laptop.

  • How to properly disconnect a Mini Display Port (MDP) from a Macbook Pro 2012, 1,9?

    Hello:
    I was wondering if any Macxperts out there had any idea on how to properly disconnect a MDP Thunderbolt Cable from a 2012 1,9 Gen. Macbook Pro. From my experience with older Macbooks the command was "Command + F7" or something of the sort.
    On my Macbook Pro 2012, there is no such button or commend to properly disconnect the plug; as if one were to disconnect or "eject" an external HD. I have read some articles on Google that some people just disconnect the plug and that action is sufice to disconnect an external video projection (Ex: Flat Screen Samsung).
    Can a Macxpert or Genius comment on this piece of information? I would really apprecite some light shed on this situation. I just don't see unpluggin a cable connected to a video source enough to properly shut off a connection with out damaging the Macbook Pro's video card.
    Thanks

  • Does anybody knows where can i buy a replacement AC power cable for my cinema display 27"?

    Does anybody knows where can i buy a replacement AC power cable for my cinema display 27"?

    It may not be the same molded plug but I would think any normal 3-prong computer power cable should work.
    How about this one?
    922-6529 Power Cord - Apple Cinema Display
    I've always had the theory that if you put two computer power cords in a drawer they will breed and you'll end up with a lot more!   My parts drawer is always full of them.  They like to knot up by themselves as well!  Maybe that's how they breed.

  • PCIE power cable doesn't fit!

    I didn't get a convertor with my MSI6800GT, as it was a demo sample, but my PSU supports 6 pin output, I did however get a cable thrown into the box at a last minute, which doesn't produce enough power.
    Cable 1:
    Normal ATI X800 pcie power cable, only fills two of the 6 pins in the 6 pin output, so doesn't produce enough power.
    PSU 6pin cable:
    doesn't fit!  The pin right under the attachment thing is square, on the other cable (which fits but doesn't have enough power) that's rounded and that fits fine.

    neuron,
    How about listing your specs and post some pix of the hardware in question.
    Take Care,

  • Can I buy a new power cable?

    My MacBook power cable is falling appart; the plastic is wearing away and it will only charge when it's positioned in certain ways. I was wondering if there was anyway I could buy a new power cable for my MacBook and how much it would cost. I would really appreciate it if I could get a new one for relatively cheap.

    You can get a new third party 60W power adapter on eBay for under $20.

  • Thinkpad Yoga: Lenovo Power Plans

    Hello i upgraded my Yoga to Windows 8.1. Enterprise but no i lost my lenovo energy plans. Can you tell me how to get them like energysaver again?
    Can anyone export them like here http://www.intowindows.com/how-to-import-and-export-power-plans-schemes-in-windows-7/ for me please?
    Regards Zack

    Then, about controlling at which level does the battery start charging and at which level it stops, I have found that the Power Managment software extention is not compatible with the Thinkpad Yoga... Which is a pity to my mind. The Lenovo staff justify it by saying that it is not harmful to let the battery fully charged and plugged until it is the case during years non stop.
    But I would like to tell here that since we see on several websites that a battery has a better lifetime if charged at 80-90% rather than 100%, if the software engineers could make the software compatible without too much effort, that would be great.
    I have also discussed with other people about the F1-F12 keys configuration in the BIOS, and we agree in general that it's very frustrating to see some useful possibilities disabled on newest computers, especially knowing that it is supposed to be professional machines...
    I hope then that the Lenovo staff is opened to customers' wishes and works to make the best of Lenovo's computers experience.
    All the best.
