Sony PCG-Z1 Power Adapter
Upon choosing a replacement AC charger, the actual Sony brand is usually going to be the safest choice. If your decision is to purchase a different brand charger, make sure to check both the volts and amps outputs. The Sony PCG-Z1 power adapter provides two functions, to charge the onboard battery while simultaneously providing power for the laptop. Because Sony uses one power charger that is most likely used on other laptop models, be sure you choose the right one. A universal power adapter is a possibility but only if necessary.
Major clues of a declining power adapter
- The laptop does not run without the battery installed
- Battery does not charge up completely
- Most Sony AC adapters will get very warm to the touch when they are plugged in for a period of time
