yup. they definitely removed it from their website...doesn't give much assurances that they're supporting the adapter.  very discouraging

That would just be another 240w laptop power source. Dell, Lenovo and other brands make them.

The SC17 1070 is 19V very hard to find.  Also the plug may vary.  Most chargers from the OEM's mentioned are 19.5V, so perhaps within tolerance, not sure how bad it would be for the machine.  Also one would need to check the polarity.
One option, not sure of the plug, is the Razer Blade Pro charger, which is 19V, perfect, 13.15A, so 250W.  If the plug and polarity match, it would be a perfect fit.
I have an alienware 330W coming to test on my 1080, which has 19.5V PSU, but the alienware one has a center pin, so I will need to check if it will fit and work when it arrives.  Polarity matches though.

Nice catch on the 19V... however, they use a specialized flat 3 pin connector, checkout the ebay listing here, middle picture: ebay.com/itm/Genuine-OEM-2016-Razer-Blade-Pro-250-Watt-AC-Power-Adapter-RC30-0166-19V-13-16A-/263127076843?rmvSB=true

I suppose, if enough customers write them, asking them to sell the PSU, they will eventually get enough in stock to make it available on their site.  Hopefully they will add the PSU for the 1080 model as well.

I called them today....from the impression I got, they are not putting up the product page because any remaining stock will be used to replace customer returns on defective adapters. I also got the impression that there maybe new laptops in the future, but no definitive answer on if they will sell our particular adapters again (rather than just replace defective units.) I wonder if they could just order a batch of 100 standard bricks with the appropriate voltage/wattage...doesn't matter about the design, just as long as it's reliable.
