Dell PP20L Power Adapter
The Dell PP20L AC adapter has two main uses, charging the battery and powering the laptop. If you decide to buy an non-Dell adapter, make note of both the voltage and amperage output. Because Dell has been known to use a single AC adapter that can be used on other units, be certain you select the correct one for the PP20L model. A universal AC adapter can be used if you are desperate. When purchasing a replacement charger, selecting the Dell OEM charger will probably be the safest way to go.
Cues of a poorly performing Dell power adapter
- Battery does not charge up every time
- The laptop does not operate while just using AC power
- Most Dell AC adapters will get very warm to the touch when plugged in for any length of time
