Compaq Presario XL182 Power Adapter
The Compaq Presario XL182 AC adapter is needed for two reasons, charging the battery and powering the laptop. When purchasing a replacement AC charger, choosing the Compaq brand one will probably be the safest way to go. If your decision is to purchase a different brand charger, make sure to check both the voltage and amperage output. Due to the fact that one Compaq adapter is most likely used on other laptop models, be certain to thoroughly note the part number that is needed for this model. A universal power adapter can be used if you are desperate.
Key clues of a failing laptop charger
- The unit will not run while solely using the AC adapter
- Most Compaq adapters will get warm to the touch when plugged in for 10 minutes or more
- Your Compaq battery refuses to charge up all the time
