Alienware M17X R4 Power Adapter
The Alienware M17X R4 power adapter is responsible for two things, to charge the onboard battery and to provide a source of power for the unit. If your decision is to purchase a different brand charger, please check on the output of amps and voltage. A universal AC adapter can be used if you are desperate. Upon choosing a replacement charger, selecting the Alienware OEM charger is always going to be the safest and easiest way to go. Because Alienware has been known to use a single AC adapter that is probably used on other similar units, be sure you choose the right one.
Some warnings of a laboring charger
- Your Alienware battery refuses to charge whatsoever
- Most Alienware AC adapters will get warm to the touch when plugged in for any length of time
- The unit will not work while just using AC power
