Dell Dimension 5100 Power Adapter
The Dell Dimension 5100 power adapter is responsible for two things, to charge up the main battery and to provide a source of power for the unit. If your decision is to purchase a different brand charger, make sure to check both the voltage and amperage output. Upon choosing a replacement AC adapter, choosing the Dell brand one is usually going to be the safest choice. Because Dell uses one power charger that can be used on other units, be certain to thoroughly note the part number that is needed for this model. A universal AC adapter can be used if yours is unavailable or backordered.
