Sony PCG-XG500 Power Adapter
When choosing a new adapter, the actual Sony brand is the best one to choose. Because Sony uses one power charger that powers multiple other machines, be certain you select the correct one for the PCG-XG500 model. If you decide to buy an non-Sony adapter, make sure to check both the volts and amps outputs. A universal power adapter is a possibility if yours is unavailable or backordered. The Sony PCG-XG500 AC adapter is responsible for two things, to charge up the main battery and to provide a source of power for the unit.
What are some indications that my charger is on its last leg?
- Most Sony adapters will get very warm to the touch when they are plugged in for a period of time
- Battery does not charge up every time
- The unit will not run while solely using the AC adapter
