Gateway EC18T Power Adapter
Due to the fact that one Gateway adapter is probably used on other similar units, make sure you check the part number for the correct one. The Gateway EC18T power adapter is responsible for two things, charging the battery while simultaneously providing power for the laptop. A universal power adapter is another possibility but only if necessary. If your decision is to purchase a different brand charger, make note of the output of amps and voltage. Upon choosing a replacement AC adapter, the actual Gateway brand is usually going to be the safest choice.
Major warnings of a worsening power adapter
- The laptop does not operate while just using AC power
- Most Gateway adapters get warm when they are plugged in for a period of time
- Battery does not charge completely
