Sony VGN-UX380N Power Adapter
The Sony VGN-UX380N power adapter is needed for two reasons, charging the battery and to provide a source of power for the unit. When choosing a new AC adapter, the actual Sony brand is always going to be the safest and easiest way to go. Because Sony uses one power charger that is probably used on other similar units, double-check the part number or model number of the adapter. A universal AC adapter is a possibility if yours is unavailable or backordered. If you decide to buy an non-Sony adapter, it is imperative to note both the volts and amps outputs.
Signals your laptop charger needs replacing ASAP
- Most Sony adapters will get warm to the touch when they are plugged in for a period of time
- Battery does not charge at all
- The unit will not run using just the AC power adapter
