Sony VGN-A170 Power Adapter
The Sony VGN-A170 power adapter is needed for two reasons, to charge any and all batteries while simultaneously providing power for the laptop. Because Sony uses one power charger that powers multiple other machines, be certain you select the correct one for the VGN-A170 model. If your decision is to purchase a different brand charger, make note of both the volts and amps outputs. A universal AC adapter is another possibility if yours is unavailable or backordered. Upon choosing a replacement AC adapter, the actual Sony brand is the best one to choose.
What are some indications that my power adapter is almost dead?
- Your Sony battery refuses to charge up all the time
- Most Sony AC adapters will get warm to the touch when plugged in for any length of time
- The laptop does not work while solely using the AC adapter
