Sony PCG-FXA47 Power Adapter
If your decision is to purchase a different brand charger, make sure to check the output of amps and voltage. Because Sony uses one power charger that is most likely used on other laptop models, be certain you select the correct one for the PCG-FXA47 model. When choosing a new AC charger, choosing the Sony brand one is always going to be the safest and easiest way to go. A universal power adapter can be used if you absolutely need to. The Sony PCG-FXA47 AC adapter has two main uses, to charge up the main battery and to provide a source of power for the unit.
Simple indications of a failing laptop charger
- Battery does not charge at all
- Most Sony adapters can get quite warm when plugged in for 10 minutes or more
- The unit will not run without the battery installed
