Sony PCG-R505DL Power Adapter
Because Sony uses one power charger that can be used on other units, be certain to thoroughly note the part number that is needed for this model. When choosing a new AC charger, choosing the Sony brand one is usually going to be the safest choice. The Sony PCG-R505DL AC adapter is needed for two reasons, to charge the onboard battery and to provide a source of power for the unit. If your decision is to purchase a different brand charger, make sure to check both the voltage and amperage output. A universal AC adapter can be used but only if necessary.
Some clues of a laboring AC adapter
- Your Sony battery refuses to charge up at all
- Most Sony adapters will get very warm to the touch when plugged in for 10 minutes or more
- The laptop does not operate while solely using the AC adapter
