Sony PCG-505G Power Adapter
If you decide to buy an non-Sony adapter, it is imperative to note both the volts and amps outputs. Because Sony 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 can be used if you absolutely need to. When choosing a new charger, selecting the Sony OEM charger is usually going to be the safest choice. The Sony PCG-505G power adapter is needed for two reasons, to charge any and all batteries and powering the laptop.
What are the signs that the AC adapter is not working properly?
- Most Sony AC adapters will get warm to the touch when plugged in for 10 minutes or more
- Battery does not charge up every time
- The unit will not function using just the AC power adapter
