Compaq NW8000 Power Adapter
The Compaq NW8000 AC adapter provides two functions, to charge the onboard battery and to provide a source of power for the unit. When choosing a new adapter, the actual Compaq brand is usually going to be the safest choice. A universal power adapter is a possibility if yours is unavailable or backordered. Because Compaq 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. If you decide to buy an non-Compaq adapter, make sure to check both the volts and amps outputs.
Some warnings your power adapter will need replacing
- The unit will not run while solely using the AC adapter
- Battery does not charge up all the time
- Most Compaq adapters get warm when they are plugged in for a period of time
