Sony VGN-SR165E Power Adapter
The Sony VGN-SR165E AC adapter is responsible for two things, to charge up the main battery while simultaneously providing power for the laptop. If your decision is to purchase a different brand charger, make note of the output of amps and voltage. When choosing a new charger, the actual Sony brand is always going to be the safest and easiest way to go. Because Sony uses one power charger that powers multiple other machines, be sure you choose the right one. A universal AC adapter is another possibility if you are desperate.
Hints of a failing charger
- Most Sony adapters get warm when plugged in for 10 minutes or more
- The unit will not operate without the battery installed
- Battery does not charge at all
