Lenovo 3000 N500 Power Adapter
Because Lenovo uses one power charger that is probably used on other similar units, be certain to thoroughly note the part number that is needed for this model. The Lenovo 3000 N500 power adapter is responsible for two things, charging the battery while simultaneously providing power for the laptop. Upon choosing a replacement AC charger, selecting the Lenovo OEM charger is always going to be the safest and easiest way to go. A universal AC adapter can be used if you absolutely need to. If you decide to buy an non-Lenovo adapter, it is imperative to note the output of amps and voltage.
Red flags of an ineffective AC adapter
- Battery does not charge up completely
- Most Lenovo adapters get warm when plugged in for any length of time
- The laptop does not function while solely using the AC adapter
