Compaq Presario XL101 Power Adapter
Upon choosing a replacement AC adapter, choosing the Compaq brand one is usually going to be the safest choice. If buying off-brand, please check on both the voltage and amperage output. The Compaq Presario XL101 AC adapter provides two functions, to charge any and all batteries and to provide a source of power for the unit. Due to the fact that one Compaq adapter is most likely used on other laptop models, be sure you choose the right one. A universal power adapter can be used if yours is unavailable or backordered.
Signs of a poorly working charger
- Your Compaq battery refuses to charge up at all
- Most Compaq adapters can get quite warm when plugged in for 10 minutes or more
- The laptop does not operate using just the AC power adapter
