Compaq Presario 1600-XL141 Power Adapter
The Compaq Presario 1600-XL141 AC adapter has two main uses, to charge any and all batteries and to provide a source of power for the unit. Because Compaq has been known to use a single AC adapter that is probably used on other similar units, be sure you choose the right one. When purchasing a replacement AC charger, the actual Compaq brand is usually going to be the safest choice. A universal AC adapter can be used but only if necessary. If you decide to buy an non-Compaq adapter, make sure to check both the volts and amps outputs.
Clues of a bad charger
- Most Compaq adapters will get warm to the touch when plugged in for 10 minutes or more
- Your Compaq battery refuses to charge all the time
- The laptop does not run using just the AC power adapter
