Sony VGN-FW480J Power Adapter
When purchasing a replacement charger, choosing the Sony brand one will probably be the safest way to go. If you decide to buy an non-Sony adapter, please check on both the voltage and amperage output. The Sony VGN-FW480J AC adapter has two main uses, charging the battery and to provide a source of power for the unit. Because Sony has been known to use a single AC adapter that is probably used on other similar units, double-check the part number or model number of the adapter. A universal power adapter is a possibility but only if necessary.
Signs your AC adapter will die soon
- The unit will not operate while just using AC power
- Battery does not charge up all the time
- The majority of Sony power chargers will get very warm to the touch when they are plugged in for a period of time
