Sony VGN-AR570N Power Adapter
Because Sony has been known to use a single AC adapter that can be used on other units, make sure you check the part number for the correct one. If buying off-brand, make sure to check both the volts and amps outputs. When purchasing a replacement charger, choosing the Sony brand one will probably be the safest way to go. The Sony VGN-AR570N AC adapter has two main uses, charging the battery while simultaneously providing power for the laptop. A universal power adapter is a possibility if you absolutely need to.
What warnings should I watch out for to know if my charger is on its last leg?
- Most Sony AC adapters get warm when plugged in for 10 minutes or more
- The unit will not run while solely using the AC adapter
- Battery does not charge whatsoever
