Sony PCG-GRS515M Power Adapter
If you decide to buy an non-Sony adapter, make sure to check both the voltage and amperage output. Because Sony uses one power charger that is most likely used on other laptop models, make sure you check the part number for the correct one. A universal power adapter can be used if yours is unavailable or backordered. The Sony PCG-GRS515M power adapter provides two functions, to charge any and all batteries and to provide a source of power for the unit. When purchasing a replacement AC adapter, the actual Sony brand is usually going to be the safest choice.
Red flags the power charger is going to die
- Most Sony adapters will get very warm to the touch when plugged in for 10 minutes or more
- The unit will not run without the battery installed
- Battery does not charge up every time
