Dell Studio XPS 16 Power Adapter
The Dell Studio XPS 16 power adapter has two main uses, charging the battery and to provide a source of power for the unit. Upon choosing a replacement adapter, selecting the Dell OEM charger will probably be the safest way to go. Because Dell has been known to use a single AC adapter that powers multiple other machines, be certain you select the correct one for the Studio XPS 16 model. A universal power adapter is a possibility but only if necessary. If your decision is to purchase a different brand charger, make note of the output of amps and voltage.
Red flags of a deteriorating charger
- The majority of Dell power chargers can get quite warm when plugged in for 10 minutes or more
- Your Dell battery refuses to charge completely
- The unit will not function without the battery installed
