Acer Aspire 1820PTZ Power Adapter
The Acer Aspire 1820PTZ power adapter provides two functions, to charge up the main battery and to provide a source of power for the unit. Due to the fact that one Acer adapter is probably used on other similar units, be sure you choose the right one. If buying off-brand, make sure to check both the volts and amps outputs. When choosing a new AC charger, the actual Acer brand is usually going to be the safest choice. A universal AC adapter is another possibility but only if necessary.
Signals of a poorly performing power adapter
- Most Acer adapters will get very warm to the touch when plugged in for 10 minutes or more
- Battery does not charge whatsoever
- The unit will not function while just using AC power
