Dell Latitude CP Power Adapter
Because Dell has been known to use a single AC adapter that can be used on other units, make sure you check the part number for the correct one. The Dell Latitude CP power adapter is needed for two reasons, charging the battery while simultaneously providing power for the laptop. When purchasing a replacement adapter, selecting the Dell OEM charger is the best one to choose. If you decide to buy an non-Dell adapter, it is imperative to note both the volts and amps outputs. A universal power adapter is a possibility if you are desperate.
Signs of an inadequate charger
- The majority of Dell power chargers get warm when they are plugged in for a period of time
- Battery does not charge every time
- The unit will not work while just using AC power
