Sony VPCB119GX Power Adapter
If you decide to buy an non-Sony adapter, make sure to check the output of amps and voltage. When purchasing a replacement adapter, choosing the Sony brand one will probably be the safest way to go. The Sony VPCB119GX power adapter is needed for two reasons, to charge the onboard battery and powering the laptop. Because Sony has been known to use a single AC adapter 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 but only if necessary.
Major signs to watch for in a failing AC adapter
- The laptop does not function while just using AC power
- Your Sony battery refuses to charge at all
- The majority of Sony power chargers will get very warm to the touch when plugged in for 10 minutes or more
