Compaq Presario 1600-XL144 Power Adapter
When purchasing a replacement AC adapter, choosing the Compaq brand one is the best one to choose. The Compaq Presario 1600-XL144 power adapter has two main uses, to charge up the main battery while simultaneously providing power for the laptop. If you decide to buy an non-Compaq adapter, make sure to check both the volts and amps outputs. A universal power adapter is a possibility but only if necessary. Because Compaq uses one power charger that is probably used on other similar units, be certain you select the correct one for the Presario 1600-XL144 model.
What red flags are there that my Compaq AC adapter is crapping out?
- The unit will not operate using just the AC power adapter
- Battery does not charge up at all
- Most Compaq AC adapters can get quite warm when plugged in for 10 minutes or more
