Lenovo ThinkPad S431 Power Adapter
Because Lenovo has been known to use a single AC adapter that powers multiple other machines, be certain to thoroughly note the part number that is needed for this model. When purchasing a replacement AC adapter, selecting the Lenovo OEM charger will probably be the safest way to go. A universal power adapter is another possibility if yours is unavailable or backordered. The Lenovo ThinkPad S431 power adapter is responsible for two things, to charge any and all batteries and to provide a source of power for the unit. If you decide to buy an non-Lenovo adapter, make sure to check both the volts and amps outputs.
Clues to watch for to know your power adapter will die soon
- Most Lenovo adapters can get quite warm when they are plugged in for a period of time
- The laptop does not function while just using AC power
- Your Lenovo battery refuses to charge every time
