Sony PCG-R505GL Power Adapter
The Sony PCG-R505GL power adapter is needed for two reasons, to charge any and all batteries and to provide a source of power for the unit. Due to the fact that one Sony adapter is most likely used on other laptop models, double-check the part number or model number of the adapter. When purchasing a replacement adapter, the actual Sony brand is usually going to be the safest choice. If buying off-brand, make sure to check both the voltage and amperage output. A universal power adapter can be used but only if necessary.
Warnings of a barely functioning power adapter
- Your Sony battery refuses to charge up every time
- The unit will not run without the battery installed
- Most Sony AC adapters will get very warm to the touch when plugged in for 10 minutes or more
