Sony VPCZ122GX Power Adapter
If buying off-brand, it is imperative to note both the volts and amps outputs. Because Sony has been known to use a single AC adapter that can be used on other units, double-check the part number or model number of the adapter. The Sony VPCZ122GX AC adapter is needed for two reasons, to charge up the main battery and to provide a source of power for the unit. A universal AC adapter can be used but only if necessary. When purchasing a replacement charger, the actual Sony brand is always going to be the safest and easiest way to go.
Red flags of a defective AC adapter
- The majority of Sony power chargers will get warm to the touch when plugged in for any length of time
- The unit will not function while solely using the AC adapter
- Battery does not charge whatsoever
