Dell Inspiron 1521 Power Adapter
If your decision is to purchase a different brand charger, make note of the output of amps and voltage. Because Dell uses one power charger that is most likely used on other laptop models, be certain you select the correct one for the Inspiron 1521 model. When purchasing a replacement adapter, choosing the Dell brand one is always going to be the safest and easiest way to go. The Dell Inspiron 1521 power adapter is responsible for two things, to charge any and all batteries and to provide a source of power for the unit. A universal AC adapter is a possibility if you are desperate.
General warnings of a failing Dell power adapter
