Like ty_ger07 and Halo mentioned, it should be fine, 19.5V is in the 5% general tolerance. It's only if the 19.5V is outputting a higher voltage due to production variance, that the designed device for it could tolerate, since the designed device for 19.5 would allow for a slightly higher voltage, say 20.47V, but our laptop, estimating, should max out at 19.95V Again, I'd use a multi-meter on it before you plug it in to check the DC voltage output, and while you're at it, check your current adapter too and compare voltages, and if it's within 5%, go for it (but I wont be responsible for any damage! I don't know what the voltage tolerance is for our SC17's, could be 3-10[+/-]%, etc...)
Odd though, I thought the 980M and 1080 got the standard 19.5V adapter while the 1070 users got the 19V adapter.
