Acer TravelMate 290E Power Adapter
If buying off-brand, it is imperative to note the output of amps and voltage. Because Acer uses one power charger that can be used on other units, be certain you select the correct one for the TravelMate 290E model. The Acer TravelMate 290E power adapter is needed for two reasons, to charge any and all batteries and to provide a source of power for the unit. A universal AC adapter is a possibility but only if necessary. Upon choosing a replacement adapter, choosing the Acer brand one is always going to be the safest and easiest way to go.
Clues the Acer power adapter will need to be replaced
- Most Acer AC adapters will get warm to the touch when plugged in for any length of time
- Battery does not charge up at all
- The laptop does not work using just the AC power adapter
