Acer TravelMate 8100 Power Adapter
If your decision is to purchase a different brand charger, please check on both the voltage and amperage output. Due to the fact that one Acer adapter is probably used on other similar units, be certain to thoroughly note the part number that is needed for this model. The Acer TravelMate 8100 power adapter is needed for two reasons, to charge the onboard battery and powering the laptop. Upon choosing a replacement AC adapter, the actual Acer brand is always going to be the safest and easiest way to go. A universal power adapter is a possibility but only if necessary.
Symptoms your AC adapter is on its last leg
- The laptop does not function without the battery installed
- Your Acer battery refuses to charge completely
- Most Acer AC adapters will get very warm to the touch when plugged in for 10 minutes or more
