Dell XPS 15 Power Adapter
The Dell XPS 15 AC adapter is needed for two reasons, to charge the onboard battery and powering the laptop. 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 is a possibility but only if necessary. If buying off-brand, make note of the output of amps and voltage. When choosing a new adapter, choosing the Dell brand one is always going to be the safest and easiest way to go.
Clues to watch for to know the power charger should be replaced
- The unit will not operate using just the AC power adapter
- Battery does not charge up all the time
- Most Dell adapters can get quite warm when plugged in for 10 minutes or more
