Compaq Presario XL125 Power Adapter
The Compaq Presario XL125 AC adapter has two main uses, to charge the onboard battery and powering the laptop. If buying off-brand, please check on both the voltage and amperage output. When choosing a new adapter, selecting the Compaq OEM charger is always going to be the safest and easiest way to go. Because Compaq uses one power charger that is probably used on other similar units, be certain you select the correct one for the Presario XL125 model. A universal AC adapter can be used but only if necessary.
Signals to watch for in a failing AC adapter
- Battery does not charge completely
- The laptop does not work while solely using the AC adapter
- Most Compaq AC adapters will get warm to the touch when they are plugged in for a period of time
