Sony VGN-SR290J Power Adapter
When purchasing a replacement AC charger, selecting the Sony OEM charger is usually going to be the safest choice. If your decision is to purchase a different brand charger, it is imperative to note both the volts and amps outputs. Due to the fact that one Sony adapter powers multiple other machines, double-check the part number or model number of the adapter. A universal power adapter is a possibility but only if necessary. The Sony VGN-SR290J AC adapter has two main uses, to charge the onboard battery while simultaneously providing power for the laptop.
General warnings of a weakening power adapter
- Battery does not charge up completely
- The majority of Sony power chargers will get warm to the touch when plugged in for any length of time
