Acer Aspire 5940G Power Adapter
The Acer Aspire 5940G power adapter is needed for two reasons, to charge the onboard battery while simultaneously providing power for the laptop. Because Acer has been known to use a single AC adapter that is probably used on other similar units, be certain to thoroughly note the part number that is needed for this model. If you decide to buy an non-Acer adapter, make note of both the volts and amps outputs. When purchasing a replacement charger, the actual Acer brand is usually going to be the safest choice. A universal power adapter can be used but only if necessary.
What symptoms are present when the Acer power adapter is on its last leg?
- The unit will not operate using just the AC power adapter
- Your Acer battery refuses to charge at all
- Most Acer AC adapters will get warm to the touch when they are plugged in for a period of time
