Compaq Presario XL180 Power Adapter
Upon choosing a replacement adapter, the actual Compaq brand is always going to be the safest and easiest way to go. If you decide to buy an non-Compaq adapter, please check on the output of amps and voltage. Because Compaq uses one power charger that is most likely used on other laptop models, be sure you choose the right one. A universal power adapter can be used if you absolutely need to. The Compaq Presario XL180 power adapter provides two functions, to charge up the main battery while simultaneously providing power for the laptop.
Some warnings of an inadequate power adapter
- Most Compaq AC adapters can get quite warm when plugged in for 10 minutes or more
- The laptop does not work without the battery installed
- Battery does not charge whatsoever
