AC/DC power adapter PSA18R - 120P for Iconia Tablet A100, A101, A200, A210, A500.

My A210-10g16u Iconia has found himself quickly against sporadic failures charging to a failure.  Anyone with a similar experience?

  • After I turned on tablet of AC to check the charging time.  Before the stop I noticed battery power not ca.  Tablet ran strong on battery and recharged normally.  Yet once I turned it on to AC to check the weather and before stop noticed the power source has been battery not ca.  Crazy; charged very well, she then rejected food.  Strong continuous tablet on battery but come then reload orange light has been on for a few seconds or not at all. Curiously, charge indicator on occasionally to the newer, more stringent outlets, then a surge protector, but for no more than six or seven seconds.
  • It was then that I remembered my A210 some refills back had fallen to about three feet on a well padded mat, shock absorption. I had checked to see if something was loose.  Each connection was tight and the son seemed fine, including the input power.
  • I tried to reload; same problem: battery light came occasionally on some points of sale closer but never more than six or seven seconds. In seeking outings more tight to determine if the problem was the transformer or the 18W CA Clip, the clip broke.  Having broken so easily, I thought that the clip must have caused a problem contact so I ordered a new Acer.
  • Received the clip $ 4.99 in 3 days and... nothing: no indicator of any take charge.  The so called from switching power supply, i.e., transformer, gives this occasional slight spark when the new clip is connected, but there is no warming of the transformer, no power of the Tablet input.

Certainly the easy answer is to try another charger.  But the A210 and sister units cylindrical connector feeds 12 volts DC 1.5 Amp of entry.  In this day of Chargers USB corresponding entry and exit is already quite difficult without a connector obsolete barrel makes it largely impossible.  I'm call Acer and see if I can get a reference to a nearby authorized service center.  Perhaps such a centre or other repair facilities can at least connect a corresponding charger.  But I suspect that the internal charger is a failure.  That's why I'm looking for anyone with a similar experience. If the battery remains strong, I used the camera on AC quite often several months wonder so if this turned out to be bad for the internal charger.
Thank you.

Well, it's resolved myself by visiting a repair center that uses a voltage/amperage meter to determine that the switching power supply barely sends all power to the tablet. Fortunately, this charger is fairly easy to replace through the Internet. As stated in my titled topic, it is part of Acer PSA18R-120P and adapts to many of the old tablets with USB power shaped barrel, no entries.

One interesting share side. I asked the repair specialist if my habit to leave the rest AC Tablet after the load when it happens to be close to where I'm located could have shortened life charger. He said no, but this practice could hurt the cells of battery as well shorten battery life. The result would be a scenario in which the battery level decreases by 100, or say, 99 percent, up to about 92 or 91% very quickly. I have not actually experienced such a situation, but will take into account his warning as a precaution.

  • r8500 Power adapter needs to be replaced

    Hi guys,.

    Unfortunately, my puppy has decided to go into my computer room and causing havoc with power cords (didn't hurt fortunately but it has decided to start chewing on large parts of the adapters, only good side of things, it's that he didn't have a wee on it!)

    Anyway, I can't find a power adapter replacement online for this specific router. Is there any place I could find an or can support netgear help me buy another (I can't be the only person who needs a replacement power adapter). I don't want to get the bad either and short-circuit this unit.

    So if there is someone who knows where to find one, or could help me to find the right person to netgear to connect with I would really appreciate it!

    @ifixidevices Like E - Bay is a not authorized reseller, consider buying a new power adapter.

    The part number is 332 - 10631-01.

  • Is that what the AC adapter compatible 40Y7663 for Advanced Minidock 42W4630?

    Hello!

    I bought a 42W4630 Advanced Minidock used (P/N 42W4631, FRU P/N 42W4630, Type 2504) for my Thinkpad T400 (6474 Type) but there is no 90-W adapter with it. Due to the http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/T400-T500-and-newer-T-series/T400-advanced-mini-dock-250410U-POWER-ADAPT... I also ordered a 90W AC adapter 40Y7663.

    But I don't know if the ACadapter is compatible with the docking station. I have not found a suitable compatibility list.

    You have an idea if the power adapter is compatible for my docking station? What would happen in the worst case?

    This adapter works because it's the type of adapter supplied with the advanced mini dock.

  • Iconia W4-820 will not charge with the power adapter USB Std

    Bought my W4 Iconia four weeks ago, a demonstration model, the last of them. It was packed in the box with a micro USB x adapter USB OTG cable and a power adapter. Back at home I discovered that the power adapter has been to Asus, possibly mixed in the shop. The prospective buyer of the Asus Tablet demo likely will get the Acer adapter. Adapter Asus with micro USB male connector works fine; specs are 5.2V - 1.35 amps; seems to be a STD USB adapter. The Asus adapter has a connector to USB female port to connect to a USB x microphone cable to USB adapter (with cable power adapter came in the box). Bought a 2nd power with USB 2 socket adapter to connect my W4 Iconia and my Garmin Zumo390 browser to an adapter. Specs are 5V - 3.5 amps.
    The Zumo works very well with the new card, but does not work my W4. Charge light stays off. USB ports switched to he Zumo and the Iconia W4, but same result. Zumo fresh, but W4 not. Borrowed another power adapter USB, 5V - 2 mines anti-personnel and new Zumo accusations, but the W4 still does not work. Also tried different USB adapter cables, but the same thing; Zumo invoice, W4 does not work.
    How is that possible? I can't tell the difference of 0.2 V between the Asus adapter and a USB adaptor STD would make the difference. But maybe I'm wrong. Wanted for adapters for the W4 Iconia and found several, but all the 5V as expected.
    Can anyone help.
    Will go to the shop again next week, but if I need an adapter V 5.2 I should order with Acer. 5.2 V adapters do exist not (readibly).

    Resolved issues. A dark and humid Sunday afternoon back to the store with the Tablet and all the bells and whistles. Changed the card Asus for the original Acer 5V - 2Amps (10W). Took the time to find the Acer adapter in the store. Demonstrated the adapter 2nd with 2 output USB ports and it wouldn't work with the Tablet W4. Tried another and found to be ok. 2 USB ports have a different power, a port for a smartphone and the other port is one tablet. Total power rating of the adapter is 17.5W (5V - 3.5Amps); some 2.5 and 1Amps. A happy man is back home again.

  • Satellite M300 guarantee for a power adapter broken?

    I have some problems with getting a new power adapter.

    First of all, I don't know if the warranty covers the power supply.

    Second, even if it does, the warranty (I bought a Toshiba Satellite M300, which came with a 1 year warranty, about 360 days ago) may expire before I can get the card sent to a Service Center for repair of toshiba in Victoria (I live in Tasmania.

    Thirdly, I tried to call until the call line of Toshiba which was given to me by the store, I bought the laptop, but after having pierced the numbers to get a representative human (and I tried several combinations) I had absolute silence from the other end of the phone, so I can't get all the answers to all your questions and I have no idea where to send the broken adapter.

    So wherever I need to send my adapter, it can be sent at the time, I will be actually return a new power adapter and is there anything else I should do to get it?

    Hello

    First of all:
    Yes, the power adapter is covered by warranty (if the warranty is valid) as the entire notebook

    Second:
    The standard warranty is one year. So if your warranty is still valid you should get in touch with a local ASP (certified partner) in your country and have to ask for help.
    The right ASP can be found [here: http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/generic/ASP_SUPPORT]

    Third:
    See point 2, you must contact a local ASP.

    Welcome them

    Hello

    There are different cards to laptop charger.
    For example they:

    PX1189E-1NPO
    PX1237E-1NPO
    PX1235E-1NPO

    I m not very well what car charger, you can use, but you should compare properties with adapter car charger.
    A more important value is the Volt (19V or 15V). This must be the same as your power adapter!

    However, more compatible parts can be ordered from the ASP in your country.
    So if you don't know what card adapter, you must buy then ask part such ASP.

    Hello

    Why you n t throw an eye at the bottom of the power adapter that came with your laptop.
    There should be a label with all the necessary information.
    There should be a model/part number and you might find some details on the values of Watt, volts and amperes.

    The value of the Volt is important. You must use the AC adapter that supports exactly the same value! The ampere would be a little higher, but if you would with google for the part number you will find on the label, then you could buy exactly the same piece!

    See you soon
