Sony VGN-TZ180N Power Adapter
If buying off-brand, make sure to check both the voltage and amperage output. Due to the fact that one Sony adapter is most likely used on other laptop models, double-check the part number or model number of the adapter. The Sony VGN-TZ180N power adapter has two main uses, to charge up the main battery while simultaneously providing power for the laptop. Upon choosing a replacement AC adapter, selecting the Sony OEM charger is the best one to choose. A universal power adapter is a possibility but only if necessary.
Simple signals the Sony power adapter is going to die
- The unit will not run while just using AC power
- Battery does not charge up all the time
- Most Sony AC adapters can get quite warm when plugged in for any length of time
