Dell Latitude D520 Power Adapter
When choosing a new adapter, choosing the Dell brand one is usually going to be the safest choice. The Dell Latitude D520 power adapter is needed for two reasons, to charge up the main battery and powering the laptop. A universal AC adapter is a possibility but only if necessary. 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. If buying off-brand, make note of the output of amps and voltage.
Subtle cues poorly running charger
- Battery does not charge at all
- Most Dell adapters will get very warm to the touch when plugged in for 10 minutes or more
- The laptop does not work without the battery installed
