Sony PCG-NV170P Power Adapter
When choosing a new AC adapter, selecting the Sony OEM charger will probably be the safest way to go. The Sony PCG-NV170P AC adapter is needed for two reasons, to charge any and all batteries while simultaneously providing power for the laptop. A universal AC adapter is a possibility if yours is unavailable or backordered. If you decide to buy an non-Sony adapter, please check on both the voltage and amperage output. Because Sony has been known to use a single AC adapter that can be used on other units, be certain you select the correct one for the PCG-NV170P model.
Subtle hints the Sony power adapter has very little life left
- Most Sony AC adapters get warm when they are plugged in for a period of time
- Your Sony battery refuses to charge up at all
- The unit will not function using just the AC power adapter
