Dell Inspiron 1000 Power Adapter
If buying off-brand, please check on both the volts and amps outputs. When choosing a new AC adapter, choosing the Dell brand one is usually going to be the safest choice. A universal power adapter is another possibility if you absolutely need to. Because Dell uses one power charger that powers multiple other machines, be certain to thoroughly note the part number that is needed for this model. The Dell Inspiron 1000 AC adapter is responsible for two things, to charge up the main battery and to provide a source of power for the unit.
How can I tell if my Dell power adapter needs replacing?
- Battery does not charge up every time
- The laptop does not function using just the AC power adapter
- Most Dell AC adapters will get very warm to the touch when plugged in for any length of time
