AC Adapter

Will a Non-Keyed 170W AC Adapter (for the W520) work on the W530 which has the keyed slots?

I tried a W520 Adapter on my W530 and it won't power the system. The power light on the top cover keeps blinking and it runs on battery power.

This is strange because on eBay they are marketed as "Genuine-Lenovo-ThinkPad-W520-W530-170W-20V-AC-Adapter-Charger-45N0118"
