Sony PCG-FRV33 Power Adapter
The Sony PCG-FRV33 power adapter is needed for two reasons, to charge up the main battery and powering the laptop. If your decision is to purchase a different brand charger, please check on both the voltage and amperage output. When choosing a new charger, choosing the Sony brand one is always going to be the safest and easiest way to go. A universal AC adapter is a possibility if you are desperate. Because Sony 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 PCG-FRV33 model.
How do you know when your power adapter has to be replaced?
- Most Sony AC adapters will get very warm to the touch when plugged in for 10 minutes or more
- Battery does not charge up all the time
- The laptop does not operate using just the AC power adapter
