Acer TravelMate 5530 Power Adapter
Upon choosing a replacement adapter, choosing the Acer brand one is the best one to choose. The Acer TravelMate 5530 power adapter has two main uses, to charge up the main battery and powering the laptop. A universal power adapter can be used if you absolutely need to. Because Acer has been known to use a single AC adapter that is most likely used on other laptop models, make sure you check the part number for the correct one. If you decide to buy an non-Acer adapter, make sure to check the output of amps and voltage.
Major indications your power adapter will not live much longer
- Most Acer AC adapters can get quite warm when they are plugged in for a period of time
- Battery does not charge up completely
- The laptop does not work while just using AC power
