Sony VGN-A230 Power Adapter
Because Sony uses one power charger that powers multiple other machines, make sure you check the part number for the correct one. Upon choosing a replacement AC adapter, the actual Sony brand is usually going to be the safest choice. If buying off-brand, please check on both the voltage and amperage output. A universal AC adapter is another possibility if yours is unavailable or backordered. The Sony VGN-A230 power adapter is needed for two reasons, to charge up the main battery while simultaneously providing power for the laptop.
How do you know if your laptop charger is in need of replacing?
- Your Sony battery refuses to charge up all the time
- The unit will not run without the battery installed
- The majority of Sony power chargers can get quite warm when plugged in for 10 minutes or more
