Dell PP01S Power Adapter
If you decide to buy an non-Dell adapter, please check on the output of amps and voltage. Upon choosing a replacement adapter, the actual Dell brand is always going to be the safest and easiest way to go. Because Dell has been known to use a single AC adapter that is most likely used on other laptop models, make sure you check the part number for the correct one. The Dell PP01S AC adapter is responsible for two things, to charge up the main battery while simultaneously providing power for the laptop. A universal AC adapter is a possibility but only if necessary.
Simple signals your AC adapter will not live much longer
- The majority of Dell power chargers will get warm to the touch when they are plugged in for a period of time
- The unit will not function while just using AC power
- Your Dell battery refuses to charge up every time
