Surface 48W Power Supply with USB Charging Port: another stock one?

[Nickolai]

I'm shopping for a Surface Pro 2 tablet, and I would like to buy essential accessories with it as well.

Is Surface 48W Power Supply with USB Charging Port just another stock power supply for Surface or a better one?

I plan to use my Surface Pro with a docking station a lot; probably I could use a second charger anyway? I now use a ThinkPad with a docking station and I like the comfort of having one power supply attached to docking station at all times and another in my bag to take with me on the go.

That's the same one that comes with the pro. Have a look at amazon if you're looking for an extra charger. I picked one up used a few months ago for $40. It looked brand new and is the genuine Microsoft one.

Thanks for the tip. Just a thought: I do need a charger for use with the docking station, don't I?

The docking station includes a 24Watt power supply (the same as the Surface 2).
