Hi,
I hope someone can advise me on the above please. I have lost the power cable for this charger and cannot get an exact match. The manual states it is 16v 2a output, but Amazon stocks lots of different makes but all I can find are 15v output.
So my question is, would a 15v charger work?

Are you taking about the cable only or also about the AC/DC adapter on the end of that cable ?

 

That adapter has to have the exact same voltage. Any lower and the battery will never fully charge, any higher and there is a real fire danger.
