Sony VPCSE16FX Power Adapter
If you decide to buy an non-Sony adapter, make note of both the voltage and amperage output. Because Sony has been known to use a single AC adapter that is most likely used on other laptop models, double-check the part number or model number of the adapter. The Sony VPCSE16FX power adapter has two main uses, to charge up the main battery and to provide a source of power for the unit. A universal AC adapter is another possibility if you absolutely need to. Upon choosing a replacement adapter, selecting the Sony OEM charger will probably be the safest way to go.
How can I tell if my charger is failing?
- Battery does not charge up completely
- Most Sony adapters will get warm to the touch when plugged in for any length of time
- The laptop does not run while solely using the AC adapter
