Dell Inspiron 15 5545 Power Adapter
If buying off-brand, it is imperative to note both the volts and amps outputs. 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. When choosing a new AC adapter, selecting the Dell OEM charger is usually going to be the safest choice. A universal power adapter is another possibility if yours is unavailable or backordered. The Dell Inspiron 15 5545 AC adapter is responsible for two things, charging the battery and powering the laptop.
Simple signals your power adapter will have to be replaced
- The unit will not run while just using AC power
- Battery does not charge up all the time
- Most Dell adapters will get warm to the touch when plugged in for 10 minutes or more
