Compaq Evo N160 Power Adapter
If you decide to buy an non-Compaq adapter, please check on both the voltage and amperage output. When purchasing a replacement AC charger, selecting the Compaq OEM charger is usually going to be the safest choice. The Compaq Evo N160 power adapter is needed for two reasons, to charge the onboard battery and powering the laptop. Due to the fact that one Compaq adapter powers multiple other machines, be sure you choose the right one. A universal AC adapter can be used but only if necessary.
Clues the Compaq power adapter will soon need to be replaced
- Most Compaq adapters will get very warm to the touch when plugged in for 10 minutes or more
- The laptop does not run while just using AC power
- Battery does not charge up completely

Compaq Evo N160 power adapter should be purchased brand new due to some issues on an old used power adapter. The Compaq laptop will be happier for thinking before buying. Always purchase replacement parts from a known seller when you buy online. It is in your best interest to check and double-check the part number before placing an order for a new power adapter.
