Dell Inspiron 1318 Power Adapter
Because Dell has been known to use a single AC adapter that is probably used on other similar units, double-check the part number or model number of the adapter. Upon choosing a replacement adapter, selecting the Dell OEM charger is the best one to choose. A universal AC adapter is another possibility if yours is unavailable or backordered. If your decision is to purchase a different brand charger, it is imperative to note both the volts and amps outputs. The Dell Inspiron 1318 power adapter is responsible for two things, to charge any and all batteries while simultaneously providing power for the laptop.
Clues the power charger is dying
- The unit will not work using just the AC power adapter
- Battery does not charge completely
- Most Dell adapters will get very warm to the touch when plugged in for any length of time
