If you really have to you *should* be able to use up to a "Yo- Yo" (clear&round w/ silver inserts) with a Duo. I do know that a "Macintosh PowerBook Duo AC Adapter" model number M7783 can be used with G3 PowerBooks so the other way around should work as well. On a side note, I would not recommend a Duo adapter for use with a G3 PowerBook unless it is an emergency. It will power the G3 but if you have it running full throttle while using the HD and CardBus cards, just spinning up a CD can push the adapter too far (causing power loss). So if you do find yourself with that as your only option try not to over do it. Ok, I admit while I was using that adapter for at least a year or something I only lost power something like 5-7 times if I recall but still, not all power adapters are the same regardless of model so just be careful.
