Dell Alienware 17 Power Adapter
If buying off-brand, make note of both the voltage and amperage output. Because Dell uses one power charger that is probably used on other similar units, make sure you check the part number for the correct one. A universal AC adapter is another possibility if you absolutely need to. The Dell Alienware 17 power adapter has two main uses, to charge any and all batteries while simultaneously providing power for the laptop. When purchasing a replacement AC charger, choosing the Dell brand one is usually going to be the safest choice.
What are some hints that my Dell power adapter really needs to be replaced?
- Your Dell battery refuses to charge at all
- The laptop does not operate while just using AC power
- The majority of Dell power chargers can get quite warm when plugged in for any length of time
