Dell Inspiron 5000E Power Adapter
If you decide to buy an non-Dell adapter, make note of the output of amps and voltage. Because Dell has been known to use a single AC adapter that can be used on other units, be certain to thoroughly note the part number that is needed for this model. Upon choosing a replacement AC adapter, choosing the Dell brand one will probably be the safest way to go. A universal power adapter is a possibility if yours is unavailable or backordered. The Dell Inspiron 5000E AC adapter is needed for two reasons, charging the battery while simultaneously providing power for the laptop.
Easy warnings of a dying charger
- Most Dell adapters will get very warm to the touch when they are plugged in for a period of time
- The unit will not work while solely using the AC adapter
- Battery does not charge up at all
