Sony VGN-CS308J Power Adapter
If your decision is to purchase a different brand charger, it is imperative to note both the volts and amps outputs. Upon choosing a replacement AC charger, the actual Sony brand is usually going to be the safest choice. A universal AC adapter is a possibility if you are desperate. Due to the fact that one Sony adapter is most likely used on other laptop models, double-check the part number or model number of the adapter. The Sony VGN-CS308J AC adapter is needed for two reasons, charging the battery while simultaneously providing power for the laptop.
Signs to watch for in a bad power adapter
- Most Sony AC adapters can get quite warm when plugged in for 10 minutes or more
- The laptop does not work using just the AC power adapter
- Battery does not charge completely
