Sony PCG-Z1VA Power Adapter
Because Sony uses one power charger that is probably used on other similar units, be sure you choose the right one. The Sony PCG-Z1VA AC adapter provides two functions, to charge the onboard battery and to provide a source of power for the unit. Upon choosing a replacement charger, 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 both the volts and amps outputs. A universal power adapter can be used if yours is unavailable or backordered.
Subtle hints your power adapter has very little life left
- Battery does not charge up all the time
- The majority of Sony power chargers can get quite warm when plugged in for any length of time
- The laptop does not run while just using AC power
