The laptop I bought (Aorus 5 MB) comes with a Chicony A17-120P1A charger after an unfortunate event, I broke my charger, after looking for the same model which to no avail, I wasn't able to find the same model (I live in the Philippines) though I was able to find a Chicony A12-120P1A with similar specs. Would this work as a replacement charger?

both are 5.5*2.5mm
Chicony A17-120P1A
UP/N: A120A033P
INPUT: 100-240 V~50-60hz 1.8A
OUTPUT: 19.5 V 6.15A 120W

Chicony A12-120P1A
UP/N: A120A007L
INPUT: 100-240 V~ 50-60hz 1.7A
OUTPUT: 19.5V 6.15A 120W

If you're able to source the adapter locally, you might want to take the original adapter/power brick to the store to make sure the specs are the same as well as the pin on it, often times there can be a silent update/revision to a part/parts and people are left wondering why XYZ didn't work on something that should've worked.

As for your inquiry into the part, have you tried looking across Ebay?
