Sony VGN-NW280F Power Adapter
Because Sony uses one power charger that can be used on other units, be sure you choose the right one. If you decide to buy an non-Sony adapter, it is imperative to note both the voltage and amperage output. A universal power adapter is a possibility if yours is unavailable or backordered. Upon choosing a replacement AC charger, selecting the Sony OEM charger is always going to be the safest and easiest way to go. The Sony VGN-NW280F power adapter is responsible for two things, to charge the onboard battery while simultaneously providing power for the laptop.
General indicators that your power adapter will have to be replaced
- Battery does not charge up at all
- The laptop does not function while solely using the AC adapter
- Most Sony AC adapters will get very warm to the touch when plugged in for 10 minutes or more
