RE: Universal Power Adaptor For Laptop
And 0.5V DC is a huge difference. Don't use a power adapter of 19V when you need 19.5V. As said before, voltage needs to be exact.

Unless the power info for your laptop describes a voltage range (eg: 18V~20V) you will damage your laptop when you use such a power adapter. Also, and unlike what RacePROuk said, the battery is

And voltage usage of the CPU or whatever other components of your PC don't have anything todo with this. This includes the battery!!! The power given to a laptop does not go directly to the battery; there can (should and will) be more electronic components between the battery and power adapter.

The exact data is found on the back of your laptop or in its manual.

In all fairness, you could use the power adapter of 19V with some luck, but in the long rong it would definitely not be good for your battery and/or internal circuits of your laptop.
