Dell Inspiron 17-5748 Power Adapter
Because Dell has been known to use a single AC adapter that is probably used on other similar units, be certain to thoroughly note the part number that is needed for this model. When choosing a new adapter, choosing the Dell brand one is usually going to be the safest choice. A universal AC adapter can be used if you are desperate. If your decision is to purchase a different brand charger, make note of both the volts and amps outputs. The Dell Inspiron 17-5748 AC adapter is needed for two reasons, to charge the onboard battery and powering the laptop.
What to see if the Dell AC adapter is on its last leg?
- Your Dell battery refuses to charge up all the time
- The laptop does not run without the battery installed
- The majority of Dell power chargers get warm when plugged in for any length of time
