Sony VGN-P588E Power Adapter
Because Sony has been known to use a single AC adapter that is probably used on other similar units, be certain to thoroughly note the part number that is needed for this model. The Sony VGN-P588E power adapter has two main uses, to charge the onboard battery while simultaneously providing power for the laptop. Upon choosing 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, make note of the output of amps and voltage. A universal power adapter is a possibility if yours is unavailable or backordered.
Easy warnings the Sony power adapter needs a replacement ASAP
- The laptop does not operate while solely using the AC adapter
- Battery does not charge all the time
- Most Sony adapters get warm when plugged in for any length of time
