Gateway M505 Power Adapter
Because Gateway has been known to use a single AC adapter that is probably used on other similar units, be certain you select the correct one for the M505 model. The Gateway M505 AC adapter has two main uses, to charge any and all batteries while simultaneously providing power for the laptop. A universal AC adapter is another possibility but only if necessary. If buying off-brand, please check on both the volts and amps outputs. Upon choosing a replacement AC charger, the actual Gateway brand is usually going to be the safest choice.
What symptoms are present when the Gateway power adapter needs replacing?
- Most Gateway AC adapters will get very warm to the touch when plugged in for any length of time
- Your Gateway battery refuses to charge all the time
- The unit will not work using just the AC power adapter

Make sure to try and order computer parts from a site you know if you buy anything online. Your Gateway laptop will be better off for thinking before buying.
