Dell PP38L Power Adapter
Upon choosing a replacement adapter, the actual Dell brand is the best one to choose. If you decide to buy an non-Dell adapter, make sure to check the output of amps and voltage. The Dell PP38L power adapter has two main uses, to charge any and all batteries and to provide a source of power for the unit. A universal power adapter is a possibility if you absolutely need to. Due to the fact that one Dell adapter can be used on other units, be certain you select the correct one for the PP38L model.
