Sony PCG-XG18 Power Adapter
Because Sony uses one power charger that is most likely used on other laptop models, double-check the part number or model number of the adapter. When purchasing a replacement AC adapter, the actual Sony brand will probably be the safest way to go. If your decision is to purchase a different brand charger, make note of the output of amps and voltage. The Sony PCG-XG18 AC adapter has two main uses, to charge up the main battery while simultaneously providing power for the laptop. A universal power adapter is another possibility if you are desperate.
Important hints the power charger is dying
- Most Sony AC adapters can get quite warm when plugged in for 10 minutes or more
- The unit will not operate using just the AC power adapter
- Your Sony battery refuses to charge up at all
