Acer Aspire 2480 Power Adapter
If buying off-brand, it is imperative to note both the volts and amps outputs. The Acer Aspire 2480 power adapter has two main uses, to charge up the main battery while simultaneously providing power for the laptop. Because Acer uses one power charger that can be used on other units, be certain you select the correct one for the Aspire 2480 model. When choosing a new AC adapter, selecting the Acer OEM charger will probably be the safest way to go. A universal AC adapter is a possibility if you absolutely need to.
What signals that my AC adapter is dying?
- The unit will not function while just using AC power
- Most Acer adapters will get very warm to the touch when plugged in for any length of time
- Your Acer battery refuses to charge up all the time
