Dell PP40S Power Adapter
The Dell PP40S AC adapter is needed for two reasons, to charge up the main battery while simultaneously providing power for the laptop. When choosing a new charger, selecting the Dell OEM charger will probably be the safest way to go. A universal AC adapter can be used if yours is unavailable or backordered. If your decision is to purchase a different brand charger, make sure to check the output of amps and voltage. Because Dell uses one power charger that can be used on other units, make sure you check the part number for the correct one.
Chief elements of a weakening AC adapter
- The unit will not function without the battery installed
- Your Dell battery refuses to charge every time
- The majority of Dell power chargers can get quite warm when they are plugged in for a period of time
