Acer TravelMate 5100 Power Adapter
Because Acer has been known to use a single AC adapter that is most likely used on other laptop models, be certain to thoroughly note the part number that is needed for this model. When choosing a new charger, choosing the Acer brand one is always going to be the safest and easiest way to go. If your decision is to purchase a different brand charger, make note of both the voltage and amperage output. A universal power adapter can be used if yours is unavailable or backordered. The Acer TravelMate 5100 AC adapter has two main uses, charging the battery and powering the laptop.
Key symptoms of a worsening charger
- The unit will not operate while just using AC power
- Your Acer battery refuses to charge every time
- The majority of Acer power chargers will get warm to the touch when plugged in for 10 minutes or more
