Dell Studio 15 Power Adapter
Because Dell uses one power charger that is most likely used on other laptop models, be certain to thoroughly note the part number that is needed for this model. The Dell Studio 15 AC adapter is needed for two reasons, to charge any and all batteries while simultaneously providing power for the laptop. Upon choosing a replacement adapter, selecting the Dell OEM charger is always going to be the safest and easiest way to go. If you decide to buy an non-Dell adapter, make sure to check both the voltage and amperage output. A universal AC adapter is a possibility if yours is unavailable or backordered.
Signs of an ailing Dell power adapter
- The unit will not function while just using AC power
- Most Dell AC adapters will get very warm to the touch when plugged in for 10 minutes or more
- Your Dell battery refuses to charge completely
