How & When to Select a Right HP PA3468U-1ACA Replacement Adapter for Laptop

Feb. 24, 2011 - PRLog -- With an increasing number of new electronic gadgets - phones, music players, PDAs, handheld games and other toys - comes an increasing number of AC Adapters needed to charge and power those gadgets. Often the adapteris lost or broken, and choosing a replacement can be confusing because of the variety of selections available.

According to your usage or the inadvertent fluctuation of electricity supply, the ac adapter that was supplied with the laptop may or may not work after a while. If you're in the situation where the ac adapter is not working, or the laptop is not getting powered on with your adapter, you might need to go for a replacement ac adapter.

1. Check out whether the adapter is functional, after plugging it in to a power outlet, which obviously should not be the regular outlet. If it does, then for now you don't need to buy a replacement adapter.

2. Connect the ac adapter cable into the laptop firmly, and check if you can power the laptop on. If yes, then there is no need for a replacement.

When these tests fail, you will need a replacement adapter.

How to select a right replacement ac adapter?

Here are a few specifications that you need to keep in mind, while hunting for a replacement adapter - voltage, output power and proper connectors. If these, I mean all of them, do not match the specifications of your computer, chances are that you will be taking your computer to ruin. You need to check if the replacement adapter is compatible or not.

Voltage

How to get to know about my laptop's voltage specification? It's easy. Turn the system over and you should be able to find it listed at the bottom. There might be a sticker, or it could just be printed at the bottom. The way you can identify it, is by looking for a number, with a big 'V' next to it. That will be the voltage for your laptop. While searching for a replacement ac adapter, you need to look for this specification. The original adapter will also contain this information.

Current Output

The second thing to look for is the current output. The numbers will either have 'A' or 'mA' tagged along with it (4.5A or 9mA). These numbers will ensure that the electricity going to your system is acceptable and it will not cause any electrical problems.

Connectivity

AC adapters come with different connectors. You need to choose the one that fits your computer. If it doesn't, you will not be able to power it up, and will be back to square one. Therefore, choose well.

Even if you buy a DC adapter instead of an AC adapter? Be careful! Your laptop needs an AC adapter, and you need to get one. Choose an adapter that meets all of the above four requirements: proper output voltage and current, regulated voltage if required, proper plug size, and proper polarity.
