Sony VGN-P610 Power Adapter
Because Sony uses one power charger that is probably used on other similar units, make sure you check the part number for the correct one. The Sony VGN-P610 AC adapter is needed for two reasons, charging the battery while simultaneously providing power for the laptop. If buying off-brand, make sure to check both the voltage and amperage output. A universal AC adapter can be used if you absolutely need to. When choosing a new charger, the actual Sony brand is usually going to be the safest choice.
Major warnings of a bad Sony power adapter
- Battery does not charge every time
- The unit will not run while solely using the AC adapter
- The majority of Sony power chargers will get warm to the touch when plugged in for 10 minutes or more
