Sony PCG-V505DC2 Power Adapter
If your decision is to purchase a different brand charger, make sure to check both the voltage and amperage output. When choosing a new AC adapter, selecting the Sony OEM charger will probably be the safest way to go. Due to the fact that one Sony adapter is probably used on other similar units, make sure you check the part number for the correct one. The Sony PCG-V505DC2 power adapter is needed for two reasons, to charge the onboard battery and powering the laptop. A universal power adapter is a possibility if yours is unavailable or backordered.
How do you know when your AC adapter is in need of a replacement?
- Battery does not charge up every time
- The laptop does not function while solely using the AC adapter
- Most Sony adapters get warm when they are plugged in for a period of time
