Acer Aspire 1800 Power Adapter
Because Acer has been known to use a single AC adapter that can be used on other units, be sure you choose the right one. When purchasing a replacement adapter, choosing the Acer brand one is usually going to be the safest choice. If you decide to buy an non-Acer adapter, please check on the output of amps and voltage. The Acer Aspire 1800 AC adapter provides two functions, to charge the onboard battery and to provide a source of power for the unit. A universal power adapter can be used if you are desperate.
Simple indications to watch for in a bad power adapter
- Battery does not charge at all
- The laptop does not function without the battery installed
- The majority of Acer power chargers get warm when plugged in for 10 minutes or more
