Sony VGN-A Power Adapter
The Sony VGN-A AC adapter is needed for two reasons, charging the battery and to provide a source of power for the unit. If buying off-brand, it is imperative to note both the voltage and amperage output. Because Sony uses one power charger that is probably used on other similar units, be certain to thoroughly note the part number that is needed for this model. A universal AC adapter is another possibility if yours is unavailable or backordered. When purchasing a replacement adapter, the actual Sony brand is usually going to be the safest choice.
General indicators that your power adapter will eventually need to be replaced
- Your Sony battery refuses to charge at all
- The laptop does not run using just the AC power adapter
- Most Sony adapters will get warm to the touch when plugged in for 10 minutes or more
