Sony PCG-C1MV Power Adapter
The Sony PCG-C1MV power adapter is needed for two reasons, charging the battery and to provide a source of power for the unit. If you decide to buy an non-Sony adapter, it is imperative to note both the volts and amps outputs. A universal AC adapter can be used if yours is unavailable or backordered. When purchasing a replacement AC charger, the actual Sony brand will probably be the safest way to go. 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.
Major signs your power adapter needs replacing ASAP
- Most Sony AC adapters will get warm to the touch when plugged in for 10 minutes or more
- Battery does not charge completely
- The laptop does not function while just using AC power
