Dell Vostro 5470 Power Adapter
Because Dell has been known to use a single AC adapter that is probably used on other similar units, be sure you choose the right one. The Dell Vostro 5470 AC adapter has two main uses, to charge up the main battery while simultaneously providing power for the laptop. Upon choosing a replacement charger, the actual Dell brand is always going to be the safest and easiest way to go. If your decision is to purchase a different brand charger, make note of both the voltage and amperage output. A universal power adapter can be used but only if necessary.
Key symptoms of an unhealthy laptop charger
- The unit will not function without the battery installed
- The majority of Dell power chargers can get quite warm when plugged in for any length of time
- Your Dell battery refuses to charge completely
