Dell Precision M6500 Power Adapter
If buying off-brand, make sure to check both the voltage and amperage output. The Dell Precision M6500 AC adapter provides two functions, to charge the onboard battery while simultaneously providing power for the laptop. Upon choosing a replacement adapter, the actual Dell brand is the best one to choose. Because Dell has been known to use a single AC adapter that is probably used on other similar units, make sure you check the part number for the correct one. A universal AC adapter can be used if yours is unavailable or backordered.
Major warnings your power adapter should be replaced
- Battery does not charge whatsoever
- The unit will not run using just the AC power adapter
- Most Dell adapters get warm when plugged in for 10 minutes or more
