Compaq Presario XL280 Power Adapter
When purchasing a replacement adapter, the actual Compaq brand will probably be the safest way to go. Because Compaq has been known to use a single AC adapter that powers multiple other machines, be sure you choose the right one. A universal AC adapter can be used if you absolutely need to. The Compaq Presario XL280 AC adapter is responsible for two things, charging the battery and to provide a source of power for the unit. If your decision is to purchase a different brand charger, please check on both the voltage and amperage output.
Major signs your AC adapter should be replaced
- Battery does not charge completely
- The laptop does not function without the battery installed
- Most Compaq adapters will get very warm to the touch when plugged in for any length of time
